CAS 2597-03-7: Phenthoate
Description:Phenthoate is an organophosphate compound primarily used as an insecticide and acaricide in agricultural applications. It is characterized by its ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme crucial for the proper functioning of the nervous system in insects, leading to their paralysis and death. Phenthoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint odor, and it is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound is known for its effectiveness against a variety of pests, including aphids, mites, and whiteflies, making it valuable in crop protection. However, like many organophosphates, it poses potential risks to non-target organisms, including beneficial insects and humans, necessitating careful handling and application. Its use is regulated in many countries due to environmental and health concerns, and safety measures are recommended to minimize exposure. Overall, Phenthoate exemplifies the dual nature of agricultural chemicals, providing pest control benefits while also requiring responsible management to mitigate risks.
