Abstract

Certain novel phenyl substituted cyclic urea derivatives have unexpected insecticidal activity. These compounds are represented by formula I: where A, B a, D, b, E, G, c, d, J, X and R through R 10 , inclusively, are fully described herein. In addition, compositions comprising an insecticidally effective amount of at least one compound of formula I, and optionally, an effective amount of at least one of a second compound, with at least one insecticidally compatible carrier are also disclosed; along with methods of controlling insects comprising applying said compositions to a locus where insects are present or are expected to be present.
