<p>Cyclopropane compounds of the formula (I) wherein R1 represents an acetyl or acetoxy group; an alkoxy group containlng 2 to 10 carbon atoms optionally-substituted by one or more halogen atoms; a (cycloalkyl)alkoxy group containing 3 to 7 ring carbon atoms, a total of 4 to 9 carbon atoms and optionally ringsubstituted by one or more halogen atoms; a cycloalkoxy group containing 3 to 7 ring carbon atoms; an alkenyloxy group containing 2 to 4 carbon atoms optionallysubstituted by one or more halogen atoms; an alkynyloxy group containing 2 to 4 carbon atoms; an aryloxy group containing 6 to 12 carbon atoms; an aralkyloxy group containing 7 to 10 carbon atoms; and wherein X is -CH2CH(OCH3)2; -CH2CHO; -CH=CHOR2 in which R2 is an acyl group containing 2 to 5 carbon atoms; -CHO; -COCL; -COBr; -COOR in which R represents a hvdrogen atom, a salt-forming cation, an alkyl group containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms; or a phenoxybenzyl or alpha-cyano-phenoxybenzyl group; with the proviso that when R1 is an acetoxy group, X is not a -CH2CH(OCH3)2 group. Some of the compounds have pesticidal activity and others are useful as intermediates in the manufacture of these and other pesticides.</p> |
