Phenoxyalkylamine derivative and method for controlling noxious organisms containing the same
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     This invention relates to a novel phenoxyalkylamine derivative which is a chemical for controlling noxious organisms useful as an insecticide, an acaricide and a fungicide. 
     In the prior art, there have been known a large number of phenoxyalkylamine derivatives as agricultural chemicals. For example, there have been reported quinazoline derivatives in Japanese Provisional Patent Publications No. 17123/1979, No. 76803/1980 and No. 76804/1980, a pyridopyrimidine derivative in Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 108806/1980, a thienopyrimidine derivative in Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 42387/1984, and pyrimidine derivatives in Japanese Provisional Patent Publications No. 36666/1984, No. 36667/1984, No. 286373/1986 and No. 67/1987. 
     However, a novel cyclopenta[1,2-c]-3-pyrazolecarboxamide derivative such as the compound of the present invention has not been reported at all. 
     Thus, its activity as a chemical for controlling noxious organisms useful as an insecticide, an acaricide and a fungicide has not been known. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     An object of the present invention is to provide a novel phenoxyalkylamine derivative, a method for preparing the same and a chemical for controlling noxious organisms useful as an insecticide, an acaricide and a fungicide which contains said derivative as an active ingredient. 
     The present inventors have studied intensively in order to solve the above task, and consequently found that a novel phenoxyalkylamine derivative has remarkable controlling activity as a chemical for controlling noxious organisms useful as an insecticide, an acaricide and a fungicide, to accomplish the present invention. 
     That is, a first invention is concerned to a phenoxyalkylamine derivative represented by the following formula: ##STR2## wherein R 1  represents a lower alkyl group or a lower haloalkyl group; R 2  represents hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group; R 3  represents hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group or a halogen atom; R 4  represents a lower alkenyl group or --A--O--R 6  where A represents a lower alkylene group and R 6  represents a lower alkyl group, a lower alkenyl group or a lower alkynyl group; 
     R 5  represents hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group or a halogen atom. 
     A second invention is concerned to a method for preparing the phenoxyalkylamine derivative represented by the above formula (I), which comprises reacting a cyclopenta[1,2-c]-3-pyrazolecarboxylic acid derivative represented by the following formula: ##STR3## wherein R 1  and R 2  each have the same meanings as defined above; and X represents a halogen atom 
     with a phenoxyalkylamine represented by the following formula: ##STR4## wherein R 3 , R 4  and R 5  each have the same meanings as defined above. 
     A third invention is concerned to an insecticide, an acaricide and a fungicide which contain the phenoxyalkylamine derivative represented by the above formula (I) as an active ingredient.

     Subsequently, 10 green rice leafhoppers (4th instar nymphs) were placed in the respective cylinders. The cylinders were closed with porous caps and left to stand in a thermostat chamber at 25° C. After 4 days, insecticidal rate was determined by counting living and dead insects. 
     The insecticidal effect was evaluated by using 4 ranks depending on the range of insecticidal rate (A: 100 %, B: 99 to 80 %, C: 79 to 60 % and D: 59 % or less). 
     These results are shown in Table 5.

     (6) Test of controlling effect on powdery mildew (barley) (prevention effect) 
     In plastic flowerpots having a diameter of 6 cm, 10 barleys (variety: Kuromugi) were grown per one flowerpot, and to the young plants at 1.5 leaf stage, the chemicals obtained by diluting the wettable powders of the compounds (I) shown in Tables 1 to 4 prepared as in Example 2 to 500 ppm with water containing a surfactant (0.01%) were sprayed in an amount of 20 ml per one flowerpot, respectively. 
     These barleys were grown in a glass greenhouse for 2 days, and then conidiospores of powdery mildew (barley) collected from infected leaves were dusted uniformly over the respective plants to be inoculated thereinto. 
     Then, these plants were grown in a glass greenhouse for one week, and the degree of lesion of powdery mildew (barley) appeared on the respective first leaves was examined. 
     The fungicidal effect was evaluated by using 6 ranks as compared with the degree of lesion in the non-treated district (0: all area is infected, 1: lesion area is about 60%, 2: lesion area is about 40%, 3: lesion area is about 20%, 4: lesion area is 10% or less and 5: no lesion is observed).

     (7) Test of controlling effect on brown rust (wheat) (prevention effect) 
     In plastic flowerpots having a diameter of 6 cm, 10 wheats (variety: Kobushi wheat) were grown per one flowerpot, and to the young plants at 1.5 leaf stage, the chemicals obtained by diluting the wettable powders of the compounds (I) shown in Tables 1 to 4 prepared as in Example 2 to 500 ppm with water containing a surfactant (0.01%) were sprayed in an amount of 20 ml per one flowerpot, respectively. After spraying, the wheats were grown in a glass greenhouse for 2 days, and then a suspension of spores of brown rust (wheat) (2 to 3×10 5  /ml) was sprayed uniformly to the plants to be inoculated thereinto. 
     After inoculation, the wheats were grown in a glass greenhouse for one week, and the degree of lesion of brown rust (wheat) appeared on the first leaves was examined. 
     The results are shown in Table 11 according to the 6 rank evaluation method described in the above (6).
