Omethoate is a chemical compound from the group of carboxamides and thiophosphoric acid esters .

Extraction and presentation

Omethoate can be produced by reacting O , O -dimethylphosphoryl mercaptoacetic acid with methyl isocyanate or by reacting O , O -dimethylthiophosphoric acid with 2-chloro- N- methylacetamide .

properties

Omethoat is a flammable, slightly volatile, oily, colorless liquid with a mercaptan- like odor that is miscible with water. It decomposes when heated above 135 ° C. Omethoate hydrolyzes slowly in acidic and more rapidly in basic conditions.

use

Omethoate is used as an insecticide . It is a metabolite and P = O analog (oxon) of dimethoate and works by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase .

Admission

Omethoat was approved in the GDR between 1976 and 1994 and in the FRG between 1971 and 1998.

In 2002 it was not included in the list of permitted active ingredients in plant protection products in Annex I of Directive 91/414 / EEC. In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, no pesticides with this active ingredient are permitted.
