Novel substituted 2-phenoxyphenoxyethylcarbamic esters of the formula I ##STR1## where R.sub.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 alkenyl, R.sub.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or a radical of the formula ##STR2## --C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --CN or --N(R.sub.9)--COO--C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently of one another are hydrogen or methyl, R.sub.5 is fluorine or chlorine, R.sub.6 is either identical to the substituents given in the case of R.sub.5 or is hydrogen, R.sub.7 and R.sub.8 independently of one another are hydrogen, halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy or nitro, R.sub.9 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl and n is zero, one or two, their preparation, their use in pest control, and pesticides containing these carbamic esters as active substance, are described. The preferred field of application is the control of pests on animals and plants, in partcular of eggs and larvae of phytophagous harmful insects and harmful mites.
A compound of the formula Ia ##STR38## where R.sub.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 alkenyl, R.sub.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or a radical of the formula ##STR39## --C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --CN or --N(R.sub.9)--COO--C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently of one another are hydrogen or methyl, R.sub.5 is fluorine or chlorine, R.sub.6 is fluorine when R.sub.5 is fluorine or is hydrogen when R.sub.5 is chlorine, R.sub.7 and R.sub.8 independently of one another are hydrogen, halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy or nitro, R.sub.9 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl and n is zero, one or two.
An insecticidal composition, containing, as the active component, at least an effective amount of a compound of the formula Ia
A method of controlling insect pests on plants, animals and stored goods which comprises contacting any of the development stages of said pests or their locus with an insecticidally effective amount of a compound of the formula Ia ##STR46## where R.sub.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or C.sub.3 -C.sub.4 alkenyl, R.sub.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or a radical of the formula ##STR47## --C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --CN or --N(R.sub.9)--COO--C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently of one another are hydrogen or methyl, R.sub.5 is fluorine or chlorine, R.sub.6 is fluorine when R.sub.5 is fluorine or is hydrogen when R.sub.5 is chlorine, R.sub.7 and R.sub.8 independently of one another are hydrogen, halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy or nitro, R.sub.9 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl and n is zero, one or two.
