Overview

Chlormephos, with the IUPAC name S-(Chloromethyl) O,O-diethyl phosphorodithioate, is an organothiophosphate insecticide. It is utilized in various agricultural applications for pest control. The chemical formula for Chlormephos is C₅H₁₂ClO₂PS₂ and it has a molar mass of 234.69 g/mol.

Uses

Chlormephos is primarily used as an insecticide in agricultural settings. It is effective in controlling a wide range of pests, making it valuable for crop protection.

Regulatory

Chlormephos is classified as an extremely hazardous substance in the United States under Section 302 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (42 U.S.C. 11002). Facilities that produce, store, or use Chlormephos in significant quantities must adhere to strict reporting requirements.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of Chlormephos residues in food and the environment is essential to ensure compliance with regulatory limits. Laboratories utilize high-purity reference materials to achieve accurate and reliable results.

Health Impact
