| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Bromfenvinfos is an organophosphate insecticide which is probably now obsolete. It is moderately soluble in water and miscible with many organic solvents. Data relating to its environmental fate and toxicology is scarce. | [Production Methods]
Bromfenvinfos was manufactured using the standard industrial chemistry applied to mid 20th century organophosphate insecticides. Production began with synthesis of a 2,4 dichlorophenylvinyl bromide intermediate, which was then reacted with diethyl phosphoric acid chloride or diethyl phosphite in a controlled esterification step to form the final diethyl phosphate ester. After reaction, the crude material was purified, solvents removed, and the technical grade active ingredient isolated for formulation. | [Mechanism of action]
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) inhibitor. | [Pesticide Type]
