Chlorfenvinphos is a mixture of two isomeric chemical compounds from the group of organic phosphoric acid esters .
Extraction and presentation
Chlorfenvinphos can be obtained by reacting m - dichlorobenzene with dichloroacetyl chloride and then reacting the intermediate product with triethyl phosphite .
properties
Chlfenvinphos is a colorless liquid in its pure form, and as a technical product it is amber-colored, which is sparingly soluble in water. The technical product is a mixture of cis and trans isomers. It contains no less than 92% chlorfenvinphos, with a typical sample containing 9.7% of the cis and 83.8% trans isomers. The cis isomer is less effective as an insecticide than the trans isomer.
use
Chlfenvinphos is an insecticide that was used in the United States until 1991. Thereafter, use in the United States was banned. Commercial preparations usually contain 90% chlorfenvinphos in liquid form. Chlfenvinphos acts as a cholinesterase inhibitor and slowly hydrolyzes in solution.
Admission
In Switzerland, chlorfenvinphos was approved in some preparations against cabbage , carrot and onion fly in vegetable cultivation. In the EU states including Germany and Austria as well as in Switzerland, pesticides containing chlorfenvinphos as an active ingredient are no longer permitted.
