Chlorphoxime is an insecticide used as crop protection active ingredient.[1] Chlorphoxime is also a cholinesterase inhibitor and a neurotoxin.[2]
Properties
[edit]A study was conducted to investigate the effect of chlorophoxime for the control of fleas in kangaroo rats and hispid cotton rats. Chlorphoxime was found to be effective.[3]
In another study, the efficacy of some insecticides was investigated on certain storage pests. While phoxim, bioresmethrin and fenitrothion showed strong activity against the red-brown rice mealybug, the insecticidal activity of chlorphoxim and permethrin was low.[4]
Production
[edit]The synthesis of chlorophoxime is described in the following reaction sequence:[1]
Trade names
[edit]A crop protection product containing the active ingredient chlorophoxime is marketed under the trade name Baythion.[1]
Approval
[edit]No plant protection products containing chlorophoxime are approved in the European Union or Switzerland.[5]
