METHOXYFENOZIDE Usage And Synthesis

Description

Methoxyfenozide, a substituted dibenzoylhydrazine, is an insecticide that functions by accelerating the moulting process. It acts as an ecdysone agonist or ecdysonoid, substituting for the natural insect moulting hormone, 20-hydroxyecdysone. Methoxyfenozide is active on all feeding larval stages of the target Lepidoptera.
It is used to control pests including codling moth, lesser apple worm, oriental fruit moth, leafrollers, cabbage looper, cotton bollworm, armyworm, and bud moths. It could be applied to leafy vegetables, fresh herbs, lettuce, salads, herbs, brassicas, cotton, pome fruit, grapes, sweetcorn, maize, peppers, and aubergines.

Chemical Properties

White crystalline solid or powder.

Uses

Insecticide.

Definition

ChEBI: A carbohydrazide that is hydrazine in which the amino hydrogens have been replaced by 3-methoxy-2-methylbenzoyl, 3,5-dimethylbenzoyl, and tert-butyl groups respectively.

Hazard

Low toxicity by ingestion, inhalation, and skin contact.

Agricultural Uses

Insecticide: Methoxyfenozide prevents insects from molting, or shedding their exoskeleton in order to grow, e. g., caterpillars and lychee webworms.

Trade name

INTREPID®; PRODIGY®

Potential Exposure

Methoxyfenozide is a diacylhydrazine insecticide used to prevent insects from molting, or shedding their exoskeleton in order to grow, e.g., caterpillars and lychee webworms

Incompatibilities

If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure, begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions) if breathing has stopped, and CPR if heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and induce vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.

Waste Disposal

Dissolve or mix the material with a combustible solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber. All federal, state, and local environmental regulations must be observed.
