BUTOCARBOXIM Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Butocarboxim is a systematic selectively acting insecticide with anticholinesterasic activity. Butocarboxim is used to control sucking pests such as mites, aphids, white flies as well as bees in agric ulture.

Uses

Labelled Butocarboxim, a systematic selectively acting insecticide with anticholinesterasic activity. Butocarboxim is used to control sucking pests such as mites, aphids, white flies as well as bees i n agriculture.

Metabolic pathway

Butocarboxin is a structural isomer of aldicarb. Butoxycarboxim is the sulfur oxidation (sulfone) product of butocarboxim. Limited information is available to describe the degradation and metabolic fate of these two compounds. As with aldicarb, oxidation of the sulfur molecule of butocarboxim to butocarboxim sulfoxide and butoxycarboxim is the primary photolytic and metabolic reaction in soils, plants and animals (Scheme 1).

Degradation

Butocarboxim (1) is stable to hydrolytic degradation (pH 5-7, up to 50 °C, PM) and is stable under UV light irradiation. It degrades under strong acidic and alkaline conditions.
Butoxycarboxim (2) is susceptible to alkaline hydrolysis (DT₅₀ values of 500, 18 and 16 days in pH 5, 7 and 9, respectively, PM). It is also stable under UV light irradiation.
