Sulfotep is a chemical compound from the group of thiophosphoric acid esters .
Extraction and presentation
Sulfotep can be prepared by reaction of tetraethyl pyrophosphate with sulfur or hydrolysis of diethylchlorothiophosphate be obtained.
properties
Sulfotep is a flammable colorless liquid with a garlic-like odor that is very sparingly soluble in water. It is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChE inhibitor). It can also arise in traces as a contamination during the production of other pesticides (e.g. in chlorpyrifos ). Production in the EU in 1997 was over 1000 tonnes per year.
In animals, among other things, it is broken down into O , O- diethylphosphorothioate .
use
Sulfotep is used as an insecticide and acaricide . It is also used in smoke generating systems for greenhouse fumigation. Sulfotep was marketed by Bayer AG from 1944 . The connection was approved in the GDR and between 1971 and 2005 in the FRG.
Admission
Sulfotep is not on the list of plant protection agents permitted in the European Union . In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, no pesticides with this active ingredient are permitted.
safety instructions
Sulfotep is highly toxic. It is quickly absorbed and excreted from the gastrointestinal tract, the lungs, the outer mucous membranes and the skin.
