Viscous Yellow Oil | [Uses]
An insecticide, used to control insects from food crops, animal feed and cotton products. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A carboxylic ester obtained by formal condensation between 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutyric acid and cyano(3-phenoxyphenyl)methanol. | [General Description]
A clear viscious yellow liquid with a mild odor. Used as broad spectrum insecticide. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Insoluble in water. Rapidly hydrolyzed by alkaline solution. | [Reactivity Profile]
A pyrethroid. Phenvalerate is an ester and nitrile. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. Nitriles may polymerize in the presence of metals and some metal compounds. They are incompatible with acids; mixing nitriles with strong oxidizing acids can lead to extremely violent reactions. Nitriles are generally incompatible with other oxidizing agents such as peroxides and epoxides. The combination of bases and nitriles can produce hydrogen cyanide. Nitriles are hydrolyzed in both aqueous acid and base to give carboxylic acids (or salts of carboxylic acids). | [Hazard]
Questionable carcinogen. | [Potential Exposure]
Fenvalerate is one of the most versatile
synthetic pyrethroid insecticides. It is mostly used in agriculture and on cattle, but also in homes and gardens. It
acts as a stomach poison against a wide variety of leaf and
fruit eating such as bollworm fruit and shoot borers and
aphids. Crops on which it is used include cotton, cauliflower, okra, vines and fruits. It is also used in public health
and animal husbandry. It is effective against pests whose
strains are resistant to organochlorine, organophosphorus,
and carbamate insecticides. Not used in EU countries | [First aid]

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. Do not induce

Incineration would be an
effective disposal procedure where permitted. If an efficient
incinerator is not available, the product should be mixed
with large amounts of combustible material and contact
with the smoke should be avoided. In accordance with
40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal of
pesticides and pesticide containers | [Environmental Fate]
Soil. Fenvalerate is moderately persistent in soil. The percentage of the initial dosage (1 ppm) remaining after 8 weeks of incubation in an organic and mineral soil were 58 and 12%, respectively, while in sterilized controls 100 and 91% remained, respectively (Chapman et al., 1981). In a sugarcane runoff plot, fenvalerate was applied at a rate of 0.22 kg/ha 4 times each year in 1980 and 1981. Runoff losses in 1980 and 1981 were 0.08 and 0.56 of the applied amount, respectively (Smith et al., 1983). Plant. Dislodgable residues of fenvalerate on cotton leaf 0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours after application (0.22 kg/ha) were 0.85, 0.36, 0.38, 0.28 and 0.28 μg/m2, respectively (Buck et al., 1980). Surface Water. In an estuary, the half-life of fenvalerate was 27–42 days (Schimmel et al., 1983). Chemical/Physical. Undergoes hydrolysis at the ester bond (Hartley and Kidd, 1987). Decomposes gradually at 150–300°C (Windholz et al., 1983) probably releasing toxic fumes of nitrogen and chlorine.
| [Metabolic pathway]
After foliar treatment of 14C-fenvalerate on wheat
plants, the amount of residual radioactivity in the grain
and hull is below the limit of reliable measurement.
Individual degradation products accounting for more
than 1% of the applied radioactivity are not present in
the foliage or straw. Important degradation pathways
include decarboxylation and ester cleavage. | [Degradation]
Fenvalerate is relatively stable at pH 5 and 7 (half-lives of 130-220 days),
while at pH 9.0 it undergoes ester hydrolysis (half-life of about 65 days),
resulting in the formation of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutyric acid
(CPIA, 2) as a major degradation product. Esfenvalerate and fenvalerate
showed no significant difference in hydrolysis rate in water; however,
esfenvalerate underwent epimerisation in the alcohol moiety under alkaline
and neutral aqueous conditions (ICPS, 1990).
Fenvalerate, underwent rapid photodegradation under the action of
UV light with a half-life of 16-18 min in methanol, hexane, or acetonitrile/
water (60/40). 2-(3-Phenoxyphenyl)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)methylpentanenitrile
(decarboxy-fenvalerate) (3) was the major photoproduct, amounting
to 54-57% of the total reaction mixture. There were smaller amounts
of the dechlorinated analogue of decarboxy-fenvalerate (3) and the dimer
of 2,2-dimethyl-4-chlorostyrene3,- phenoxybenzoyl cyanide, 4-chloroisobutylbenzene,
2,2-dimethyl-4-chlorostyrene, 3-phenoxybenzyl cyanide,
its dimer, 1,2-bis(phenoxyphenyl)ethane, CPIA (Z), 3-phenoxybenzoic
acid (3PBA) (4) and 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-methylpropano(lH olmstead et
al., 1978). The products are shown in Scheme 1.
The photodegradation of fenvalerate in water and on soil was investigated
using several 14C-labelled preparations. On exposure to sunlight,
fenvalerate was rapidly decomposed in distilled water, 2% aqueous
acetone, filter-sterilised river water or sea water to almost the same
extent. The half-lives were approximately 4 days in summer and 13-15
days in winter. On soil surfaces, the rate of photodegradation was dependent
on the soils used, the half-lives being 2-18 days. One of the major photodegradation products was decarboxy-fenvalerate (3). Other major
products were 3PBA (4) and CPIA (2), derived from the ester bond cleavage,
amounting to 43% and 58%, respectively, of the applied radioactivity
after 6 weeks. In addition, small amounts of a-carbamoyl-3-phenoxybenzyl
2-(4-chloropheny)-3-methylbutyrate(CONH2-fenvalerate) (5), α-carboxy-3-phenoxybenyl 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutyrate( CONH2-fenvalerate)
(6), 3-phenoxybenzyl cyanide, 3-phenoxyphenylacetamide and Sphenoxyphenylacetic acid were formed (Mikami et al., 1980). Traces
of 3-phenoxybenzaldehyde (3PBAl) (7) and 3-phenoxybenzyl alcohol
(3PBalc) (8) (shown in Scheme 2) were also formed. | [Toxicity evaluation]

Questions and Answers (Q&A) | Back Directory | [Description]
Fenvalerate is a yellow-brown viscous liquid that is practically soluble in water. It is stable to moderate heat and light and is rapidly hydrolysed in basic environments (above pH 8). Fenvalerate is a racemic mixture of four stereoisomers in equal proportions owing to the presence of two chiral centres. It is a synthetic type II pyrethroid.
Fenvalerate is registered as an insecticide for a wide array of crop uses, as well as a termiticide and insect repellent.
