However, synthesized compounds are only Compounds No. 1.197, No. 1.200 and No. 1.202, and a substituent at 4-position is limited to a naphthylalkylamino group. Further, in these compounds, almost no activity as an agricultural chemical is obtained as mentioned in Example 3 on pages 64 to 74 below.

However, the biological activity of these compounds is not satisfactory in all applications, especially at low dosages. An object of the present invention is to provide a novel aralkylaminopyrimidine derivative, a method for preparing the same and a composition having improved properties as regards its use as an insecticide, an acaricide, a nematocide and a fungicide which contains the same derivative as an active ingredient.
