Dichlofenthion

Description:
Dichlofenthion, with the CAS number 97-17-6, 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. The substance typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint odor. It has moderate solubility in water and is more soluble in organic solvents, which facilitates its application in various formulations. Dichlofenthion is known for its effectiveness against a wide range of pests, including aphids and mites, making it valuable in crop protection. However, it is also associated with potential toxicity to non-target organisms, including humans, if not handled properly. As with many organophosphates, safety precautions are essential during its use to minimize exposure and environmental impact. Regulatory measures often govern its application to ensure safe usage in agricultural practices.
