Toxicological data
As far as possible and customary, SI units are used. Unless otherwise noted, the data given apply to standard conditions .

Tebufenozid is a chemical compound from the diacylhydrazine group and is used as an insecticide under the trade name Mimic . Tebufenozid acts as an agonist of the ecdysone receptor and is used to induce premature molting of immature larval stages. The effect of tebufenozide is highly selective against butterflies .

The insecticide is used against pests in fruit growing and viticulture such as codling moth , fruit peel moth and the single and crossed grape moth . The mass reproduction of the gypsy moth in oak forests is combated with tebufenozide.

Extraction and presentation

Tebufenozide can be produced by reacting tert- butylhydrazine , 4-ethylbenzoyl chloride and 3,5-dimethylbenzoyl chloride.

Admission

In 2008, the EU Commission did not include Tebufenozid in the list of permissible active substances in plant protection products because the applicant withdrew his application after receiving the draft assessment report. After another application for approval was submitted, the EU Commission approved inclusion in 2011.

Tebufenozide is contained in approved plant protection products in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
