2,6-Dimethylpiperidinyl-N-carbobutoxymethyl urea

Abstract

This invention relates to a method of using compounds of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen, alkyl or alkenyl; R.sup.2 is hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl or mononuclear aryl or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, taken together with the carbon atom to which they are attached, form a cycloalkyl or cycloalkoxyalkyl; R.sup.3 is hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxycarbonyl, hydroxy lower alkyl or a radical of the formula: --C(.dbd.Y)NR.sup.4 R.sup.5 wherein R.sup.4 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, R.sup.5 is alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxyalkyl, carbalkoxy, mononuclear aryl, or R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 may be joined together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached to form a 5 to 7 membered heterocyclic ring having from 1 to 3 hetero atoms; Y is O or S; X is alkyl, alkoxycarbonylalkyl or cyano; m is an integer of 0 to 2 and n and n' are integers each having a value of 1 to 2 and the dotted line indicates an optional double bond anywhere in the ring, compositions containing said compounds as insect repellents and to novel compounds.
