Oxime ethers containing a 4-phenoxyphenoxy group in the molecules were synthesized and their insect growth regulating (IGR) activities were studied.Of these new IGR's, propionaldehyde oxime O-2-(4-phenoxyphenoxy)ethyl ether and propionaldehyde oxime O-2-(phenoxyphenoxy)propyl ether were found to be most effective, having much higher activities than methoprene against larvae of Culex pipiens pallens and Musca domestica by the immersion method and medium method, respectively.In addition, the effects of steric isomerism of these compounds were examined; their IGR activities were found to have a close relationship to the juvenile hormone activity by the Galleria wax test.
