Abstract

This disclosure relates to the field of molecules having pesticidal utility against pests in phyla Nematoda, Arthropoda, and/or Mollusca, processes to produce such molecules and intermediates used in such processes, compositions containing such molecules, and processes of using such molecules against such pests. These molecules may be used, for example, as nematicides, acaricides, insecticides, miticides, and/or molluscicides. This document discloses molecules having the following formula (“Formula One”).

First claim

We claim:

1. A molecule having the following formula (“Formula One”)

and tautomers thereof, wherein:
(A) Ar 1 is substituted phenyl wherein said substituted phenyl has one or more substituents independently selected from C 1 -C 6 haloalkyl and C 1 -C 6 haloalkoxy;
(B) Het is 1,2,4 triazolyl;
(C) Ar 2 is phenyl, or substituted phenyl wherein said substituted phenyl has one or more substituents independently selected from F, Cl, Br, I, and C 1 -C 6 alkyl;
(D) R 1 is H, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, or C 2 -C 6 alkenyl, wherein said alkyl is optionally substituted with a C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl;
(E) R 2 is (J), H, or C 1 -C 6 alkyl;
(F) R 3 is phenyl, wherein said phenyl is optionally substituted with one or more substituents independently selected from F, Cl, Br, I, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, and C 1 -C 6 alkoxy;
(G) R 4 is (J), H, or C 1 -C 6 alkyl;
(H) Q 1 is S;
(J) R 2 and R 4 may be a 1- to 4-membered saturated or unsaturated, hydrocarbyl link, which may contain one or more heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen, and together with C x (Q 1 )(N x ) forms a cyclic structure, wherein said hydrocarbyl link may optionally be substituted with one or more substituents independently selected from R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 , wherein each R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 is selected from H, F, Cl, Br, I, CN, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, and oxo; and
(L) L is linker selected from
(1) a saturated or unsaturated, substituted or unsubstituted, linear (C 1 -C 4 )hydrocarbyl linker, and
(2) a saturated or unsaturated, substituted or unsubstituted, cyclic (C 3 -C 8 )hydrocarbyl group linker,
wherein each of said linkers connects Ar 2 to N Y and
wherein said substituted linear (C 1 -C 4 )hydrocarbyl linker and substituted cyclic (C 3 -C 8 )hydrocarbyl linker has one or more substituents independently selected from R 8 , R 9 , R 10 , R 11 , and R 12 , wherein each R 8 , R 9 , R 10 , R 11 , and R 12 , is selected from F, Cl, Br, I, CN, oxo, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 2 -C 6 alkenyl, C 2 -C 6 haloalkenyl, C 2 -C 6 alkynyl, C 1 -C 6 haloalkyl, C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, C 3 -C 6 cycloalkenyl, C 3 -C 6 halocycloalkyl, and phenyl.

2. A molecule according to claim 1 wherein said molecule is a tautomer having the following formula

3. A process comprising: applying a molecule according to claim 1 to a locus to control a pest, in an amount sufficient to control such pest.
