Overview
Dimethoxy-(3-methyl-4-nitrophenoxy)-sulfanylidene-lambda5-phosphane (CAS 122-14-5) is an organophosphorus compound with insecticidal properties and high aquatic toxicity. This organophosphorus pesticide, with the molecular formula C9H12NO5PS and molecular weight of 277.24 g/mol, represents a significant class of agricultural chemicals widely used for pest control applications. The compound features a complex structure incorporating phosphorus, sulfur, and nitrophenyl functional groups, which contribute to its biological activity and environmental persistence characteristics. From a safety perspective, this substance is classified under multiple hazard categories including Acute Toxicity Category 4 and both acute and chronic aquatic toxicity Category 1, reflecting its potential impact on aquatic ecosystems. The GHS07 and GHS09 pictograms indicate both health hazards and environmental dangers, while the ADR Class 6.1 classification designates it as a toxic substance requiring special transport considerations. The "Warning" signal word emphasizes the need for appropriate handling protocols and personal protective equipment during industrial operations. Industrial applications primarily focus on agricultural pest management, where its organophosphorus structure provides effective insecticidal action through acetylcholinesterase inhibition. The compound is also utilized in specialized chemical synthesis processes and research applications. Unlike structurally different compounds such as 4-tritylmorpholine, this phosphorus-containing pesticide offers specific advantages in agricultural formulations requiring systemic pest control properties. The substance shares certain application similarities with other agricultural chemicals like 2-[[4-chloro-6-(ethylamino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]-2-methylpropanenitrile, though their mechanisms of action differ significantly. OYSI maintains reliable supply chains for this technical-grade organophosphorus compound, supporting European industrial and agricultural customers with consistent quality and regulatory compliance.
