Chemische Eigenschaften
Methyl parathion is a white to yellow-brown, crystalline solid with a garlic odor.It is slightly soluble in water and has a low vapor pressure (U.S. EPA, 2006b).
Verwenden
Parathion-methyl is an derivative of Parathion (P192220), an organophosphate insecticide used on cotton, rice and fruit trees.
Definition
ChEBI: Parathion-methyl is a C-nitro compound that is 4-nitrophenol substituted by a (dimethoxyphosphorothioyl)oxy group at position 4. It is a synthetic organic thiophosphate compound and organophosphate acetylcholinesterase inhibitor that is the methyl homolog of parathion and is used as a pesticide. It is characterized as a colorless to white or tan crystalline solid that is odorless or has a pungent garlic-like odor, and exposure occurs by inhalation, ingestion, or contact.
Application
Parathion-methyl is a restricted use organophosphate sold under a number of trade names and formulations. First registered in 1954, it is used to control a variety of insect pests on food and feed crops. Methyl parathion is not used in residential settings due to its toxicity to humans, birds, and honey bees. The chemical is a restricted use pesticide with nearly 4 million pounds of active ingredient mainly used on cotton, corn, wheat, soybeans, and rice (U.S. EPA, 2006b).
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Methyl parathion is a white crystalline solid dissolved in a liquid solvent carrier. The commercial product is a tan liquid (xylene solution) with a pungent odor. Parathion-methyl is slightly soluble to insoluble in water. Usually with the liquid solvent Parathion-methyl is a combustible liquid. Parathion-methyl is toxic by inhalation, ingestion and skin absorption. Parathion-methyl is used as an insecticide.
Air & Water Reaktionen
Insoluble in water.
Reaktivität anzeigen
METHYL PARATHION is half decomposed in 8 days at 40°C. When a sample was heated in a small test tube Parathion-methyl decomposed in a few minutes, the residue exploded (Food Chem. 4(1):42. 1956).
Hazard
Explosion risk when heated. Toxicby skin absorption, inhalation, and ingestion;cholinesterase inhibitor. Use has been restricted.Questionable carcinogen.
Health Hazard
Parathion-methyl is extremely toxic; the probable oral lethal dose is 5-50 mg/kg, or between 7 drops and 1 teaspoonful for a 150-lb. person. Chronic toxicity does not appear to be a major consideration.
Brandgefahr
Poisonous gases are produced in fire and when heated. Decomposition may lead to sufficient internal pressure to cause the container to rupture violently. Avoid oxidizing materials. Unstable. High temperatures (120F) cause decomposition.
Landwirtschaftliche Anwendung
Insecticide, Nematicide: A U.S. EPA restricted Use Pesticide (RUP). Severely
Restricted for use in EU, as parathion-methyl. This material
is used as an insecticide on over 50 crops, primarily
cotton, but also on walnuts, corn, dried beans and almonds
and on several ornamentals. It is no longer allowed to be
used on crops consumed by children.

Kontakt-Allergie
A case of sensitization to
methyl-parathion was described in a female agricultural
worker with multiple sensitization.
Sicherheitsprofil
Poison by inhalation,
ingestion, skin contact, subcutaneous,
intravenous, and intraperitoneal routes. Fatal
poisoning can result from skin or eye
contact after very brief exposure to
concentrated solution. Experimental
teratogenic and reproductive effects.
Questionable carcinogen. Human mutation
data reported. A cholinesterase inhibitor
type of insecticide. When heated to
decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of
NOx, POx, and SOx.
mögliche Exposition
A severely hazardous pesticide formulation. Alert: This material is used as an insecticide on over
50 crops, primarily cotton, and on several ornamentals
Carcinogenicity
When rats were given diets with
0, 0.5, 2.5, 12.5, and 50 ppm (0, 0.02, 0.1, 0.5, or 2 mg/kg/day
(males); 0, 0.02, 0.1, 0.7, or 3 mg/kg/day (females) for
12 months, neuronal degeneration and plasma, erythrocyte,
and brain cholinesterase inhibition occurred at 12.5 and
50 ppm .
Environmental Fate
Methyl parathion is mobile in soils and can leach into groundwater and enter surface water as runoff. The chemical breaks down though microbial degradation, aqueous photolysis, hydrolysis, and incorporation into soil organic matter; thus, it degrades rapidly in soil and water with a half-life <5 days. Photodegradation is rapid in aquatic environments with a half-life of 49 h. Bioconcentration is not expected to occur (U.S. EPA, 2006b).
Stoffwechselwegen
Parathion-methyl is a non-systemic insecticide and, where studied,
metabolism parallels that of parathion and f enitrothion. The major routes
of biotransformation involve desulfuration to the oxon analogue
(paraoxon-methyl) and hydrolysis to give dimethyl phosphate, dimethyl
phosphorothionate and 4-nitrophenol. Demethylation to give desmethylparathion-
methyl and reduction of the nitro group also occurs. As with
organophosphates, demethylation via glutathione-S-methyl transferases
in the liver and some other tissues is an important mechanism in
mammals. The major route of phase II metabolism involves conjugation
of 4-nitrophenol followed by excretion.
