ABSTRACT:

The present invention relates to formulations for the dermal control of parasitic insects and mites on humans by means of agonists or antagonists of the nicotinergic acetylcholine receptors of insects.
Agonists or antagonists of the nicotinergic acetylcholine receptors of insects are known. They include the nicotinyl insecticides and, very particularly, the chloronicotinyl insecticides.
PCT application WO 93/24 002 discloses that certain 1-[N-(halo-3-pyridylmethyl)]-N-methylamino-1-alkylarnino-2-nitroethylene derivatives are suitable for systemic use against fleas in domestic animals. According to WO 93/24 002, the nonsystemic—i.e. dermal—mode of application is unsuitable for the control of fleas on domestic animals.
This invention, then, provides novel formulations for the dermal application of agonists or antagonists of the nicotinergic acetylcholine receptors of insects which are particularly suitable for dermal control of parasitic insects and mites on humans.
The formulations according to the invention have the following composition:
agonists or antagonists of the nicotinergic acetylcholine receptors of insects in a concentration of from 0.0001 to 20% by weight based on the overall weight of the formulation;
solvents from the group of the cyclic carbonates in a concentration of from 2.5 up to 99.9999% by weight based on the overall weight of the formulation;
if desired, further solvents from the group of the alcohols in a concentration of from 0 to 95% by weight based on the overall weight of the formulation;
if desired, further auxiliaries from the group of the thickeners, spreading agents, colorants, antioxidants, propellants, preservatives, adhesives, emulsifiers, in a concentration of from 0 up to 30% by weight based on the overall weight of the formulation.
Agonists or antagonists of the nicotinergic acetylcholine receptors of insects are known, for example, from European Offenlegungsschriften (European Published Applications) Nos. 580 553, 464 830, 428 941, 425 978, 386 565, 383 091, 375 907, 364 844, 315 826, 259 738, 254 859, 235 725, 212 600, 192 060, 163 855, 154 178, 136 636, 303 570, 302 833, 306 696, 189 972, 455 000, 135 956, 471 372, 302 389; German Offenlegungsschriften (German Published Specifications) Nos. 3 639 877, 3 712 307; Japanese Offenlegungsschriften (Japanese Published Applications) Nos. 03 220 176, 02 207 083, 63 307 857, 63 287 764, 03 246 283, 04 9371, 03 279 359, 03 255 072, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,034,524, 4,948,798, 4,918,086, 5,039,686, 5,034,404; PCT Applications Nos. WO 91/17 659, 91/4965; French Application No. 2 611 114; Brazilian Application No. 88 03 621.
The compounds described in these publications and their preparation are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference.
These compounds can be advantageously represented by the general formula (I)
in which
R represents, hydrogen, optionally substituted radicals from acyl, alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, heteroaryl or heteroarylalkyl;
A represents a monofunctional group from hydrogen, acyl, alkyl, aryl, or represents a bifunctional group which is linked to the radical Z;
E represents an electron-withdrawing radical;
X represents the radicals —CH═ or ═N—, it being possible for the radical —CH═ instead of an H atom to be linked to the radical Z;
Z represents a monofunctional group from alkyl, —O—R, —S—R,
 or represents a bifunctional group which is linked to the radical A or to the radical X.
Particularly preferred compounds of the formula (I) are those in which the radicals have the following meaning:
R represents hydrogen and represents optionally substituted radicals from acyl, alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, heteroaryl, heteroarylalkyl.
Acyl radicals which may be mentioned are formyl, alkylcarbonyl, arylcarbonyl, alkylsulfonyl, arylsulfonyl, (alkyl)-(aryl)-phosphoryl, which may in turn be substituted.
As alkyl there may be mentioned C
1-10
-alkyl, especially C
1-4
-alkyl, specifically methyl, ethyl, i-propyl, sec- or t-butyl, which may in turn be substituted.
As aryl there may be mentioned phenyl, naphthyl, especially phenyl.
As aralkyl there may be mentioned phenylmethyl, phenethyl.
