China herbicides Phenthoate manufacturer exporter and Supplier
Product kind | Insecticide |
Common Name | Phenthoate |
Chemical name | Ethyl 2-dimethoxyphosphinothioylsulfanyl-2-phenylacetate |
Molecular Formula | C12H17O4PS2 |
Molecular Weight | 320.36 |
CAS Registry Number | 2597-03-7 |
Properties: | The pure substance is a colourless crystalline solid; the technical product is a reddish-yellow, oily liquid. Both have an aromatic odour. The melting point is 17-18°C; the density (d420) is 1.226; the refraction index (nD20) is 1.5550; the flash poin (cleveland) is 165-170°C (technical product). Neither the pure substance nor the technical product is corrosive. |
Uses: | Stability: It is stable in acid or neutral solutions; in alkali solutions hydrolysis occurs, at pH 8.0 the half-life is 12 days. It is thermally unstable; at room temperatures the shelf-life is several months; at 50°C it is degraded in 110 hours. Solar energy and aerobic conditions promote volatization and loss from exposed surfaces. Humidity probably does not directly affect decomposition,on moist grain over 80% of applied material remains after one year of storage. Decomposition of soil-applied phenthoate is due to microbial action with CO2 as the end product. |
