Alanycarb is a pro-insecticide which transforms either chemically or biologically
into the active substance methomyl. Alanycarb metabolism in
soil, plants and animals follows a common pathway that is consistent
with methomyl. The primary metabolic pathway involves the initial
cleavage of the N-S bond of alanycarb to yield methomyl and ethyl
N-benzyl-β-alaninate. Methomyl is further metabolised to S-methyl-N-hydroxythioacetimidate
and ultimately to acetonitrile, acetic acid and
carbon dioxide (Scheme 1). See also the methomyl entry.
