Dicrotophos

Description:
Dicrotophos, with the CAS number 141-66-2, is an organophosphate compound primarily used as an insecticide and acaricide in agricultural applications. It is characterized by its systemic action, allowing it to be absorbed by plants and effectively control a variety of pests. Dicrotophos is known for its neurotoxic effects on insects, functioning by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which is crucial for the proper functioning of the nervous system. This inhibition leads to the accumulation of acetylcholine, resulting in paralysis and death of the target pests. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint odor and is soluble in organic solvents. Due to its potential toxicity to non-target organisms, including humans and wildlife, its use is regulated in many countries. Safety measures are essential when handling dicrotophos to minimize exposure risks. Environmental persistence and the potential for bioaccumulation are also considerations in its application and management in agricultural practices.
