Fenchlorphos-oxon

Description:
Fenchlorphos-oxon, with the CAS number 3983-45-7, is an organophosphorus compound that serves as a metabolite of the pesticide fenchlorphos. It is characterized by its role as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, which means it interferes with the breakdown of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, leading to prolonged nerve signal transmission. This property makes it relevant in both agricultural applications and toxicological studies. Fenchlorphos-oxon is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound is known for its potential toxicity to humans and wildlife, necessitating careful handling and regulation. Its persistence in the environment and ability to bioaccumulate raise concerns regarding ecological impact. Safety measures are essential when working with this substance, as exposure can lead to symptoms associated with cholinergic toxicity. Overall, fenchlorphos-oxon exemplifies the complexities of organophosphate chemistry and its implications for health and environmental safety.
