Flucythrinate is a mixture of isomeric chemical compounds from the group of pyrethroids and an analogue of fenvalerate .

Extraction and presentation

Flucythrinate can be obtained by a multi-stage reaction of p -cresol with chlorodifluoromethane , bromine , sodium cyanide , 2-chloropropane , sodium hydroxide , potassium hydroxide and thionyl chloride .

properties

Flucythrinate is a colorless liquid. The technical product is a brown liquid with a faint odor. The compound is stable but hydrolyzes rapidly under alkaline conditions.

use

Flucythrinate is used as an insecticide and acaricide . The effect is based on influencing the sodium channels .

Admission

Flucythrinate was approved in the GDR between 1984 and 1992.

In 2002, the EU Commission decided not to include flucythrinate in the list of permitted active ingredients in pesticides according to Annex I of Directive 91/414 / EEC.

In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, no pesticides with this active ingredient are permitted.
