Profenofos is an organophosphate insecticide . It is a liquid with a pale yellow to amber color and a garlic -like odor .[1] It was first registered in the United States in 1982.[3] : 1 As of 2015, it was not approved in the European Union .[4]
Uses
[ edit ]
Profenofos can be used on a variety of crops including cotton and vegetables such as maize , potato , soybean , and sugar beet .[5] : 404 In the United States it is used exclusively on cotton and is primarily used against lepidopteran insects.[3] : 1
Mixed with phoxim , cypermethrin , beta-cypermethrin imidacloprid and deltamethrin , profenofos can be used against Cotton MealyBug, cabbage caterpillar , Plutella xylostella and asparagus caterpillars , as well as against wheat and cabbage aphids .[citation needed ]
Mechanism of action
[ edit ]
Like other organophosphates, the profenofos mechanism of action is via the inhibition of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme . Although it is used in the form of a racemate , the S(-) isomer is a more potent inhibitor.[5] : 404
Synthesis
[ edit ]
One route to chemical synthesis of profenofos.
Profenofos can be synthesized by reacting phosphorus oxychloride with sodium ethoxide and sodium 1-propanethiolate , followed by treatment with 4-bromo-2-chlorophenol .[6] : 332
Toxicity
[ edit ]
A 2007 World Health Organization report found no adverse effects to workers of routine exposure to profenofos and no teratogenicity or carcinogenicity .[5] : 435–8
Based on a study of patients poisoned with profenofos and its close chemical relative prothiofos , the compound has been described as "of moderately severe toxicity ", causing respiratory failure . Differences in chemical structure that distinguish these two compounds from more common organophosphate pesticides - namely, the presence of the S -alkyl group on the phosphorus atom where most OP compounds possess a methoxy or ethoxy group - underlie differences in their behavior as acetylcholinesterase enzyme inhibitors compared to the rest of the OP class.[7]
In one study of a patient who died of profenofos poisoning, the major metabolites of profenofos were identified as des-S -propylated profenofos, two isomers of despropylated propenofos, and desethylated propenofos.[8] A downstream, nontoxic metabolite, 4-bromo-2-chlorophenol, has been proposed as biomarker for exposure.[9]
Environmental effects
[ edit ]
A United States Environmental Protection Agency report identified profenofos as toxic to birds , small mammals , bees , fish , and aquatic invertebrates , noting several fish kill incidents in which profenofos exposure, primarily due to runoff , was implicated as a probable cause.[3] : 2–3
