| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Odorless pale yellow crystals. Used as a rodenticide and anticoagulant medication. | [Reactivity Profile]
DIPHACINONE(82-66-6) is a ketone, and behaves as a weak acid. Forms water soluble alkali metal salts. Ketones are reactive with many acids and bases liberating heat and flammable gases (e.g., H2). The amount of heat may be sufficient to start a fire in the unreacted portion of the ketone. Ketones react with reducing agents such as hydrides, alkali metals, and nitrides to produce flammable gas (H2) and heat. Ketones are incompatible with isocyanates, aldehydes, cyanides, peroxides, and anhydrides. They react violently with aldehydes, HNO3, HNO3 + H2O2, and HClO4. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Practically insoluble in water (17mg/L). Hydrolyzed by strong acid. | [Health Hazard]
This material is extremely toxic; probable oral lethal dose in humans is 5-50 mg/kg, or between 7 drops and 1 teaspoonful for a 150-lb. person. Many medical conditions will be aggravated by this material. | [Fire Hazard]
When heated to decomposition DIPHACINONE emits acrid smoke and fumes. Sensitive to light. | [Description]
Diphacinone is also called 2-(diphenylacetyl)indan-1,3-dione,
is a yellow powder
which is practically insoluble in water, readily soluble
in chloroform, toluene, xylene, acetone, ethanol, heptane,
alkalis [9, p. 431]. | [Originator]
Dipaxin,Upjohn,US,1955 | [Uses]
Diphacinone is an anticoagulant rodenticide widely used to control rodent infestations. | [Uses]
Diphacinone is used for the control of rats, mice, voles, prairie
dogs, ground squirrels and other rodents. | [Uses]
Rodenticide. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Diphenadione is a diarylmethane and a beta-triketone. | [Production Methods]
Diphacinone is produced by condensation of 1,1-diphenyl
acetone with dimethyl phthalate in the presence of sodium
methoxide (30). | [Manufacturing Process]
A solution of sodium methoxide was prepared by adding 2.76 grams (0.12mol) of sodium to 50 ml of absolute methanol and gently warming the
mixture to effect complete solution of the sodium. To this was added 300
milliliters of dry benzene with vigorous stirring, whereafter excess methanol
was removed by concentrating the mixture to a volume of about 100 ml. To
the resulting sodium methoxide suspension was added a solution of 19.4
grams (0.1 mol) of dimethyl phthalate in 200 ml of dry benzene. The mixture
was heated to boiling and a solution of 21 grams (0.1 mol) of diphenylacetone
in 200 ml of dry benzene was added dropwise thereto. During addition
approximately 200 ml of liquid, which consisted of benzene together with
methanol formed during the course of the reaction, was distilled from the
reaction mixture. After addition of the diphenylacetone, the mixture was
heated under reflux for about 6 hours, cooled and stirred vigorously with 200
ml of 5% sodium hydroxide solution.
The light yellow solid which separated was collected by filtration; the filtrate
was reserved for treatment as described below. Suspension in water of the
solid, which weighed 12 grams, and acidification of the mixture with dilute
hydrochloric acid produced a gum which soon crystallized. Recrystallization of
this solid from ethanol gave 10.2 grams (30%) of 2-diphenylacetyl-1,3-
indandione as a light yellow crystalline solid, which melted at 146-147°C.
The filtrate mentioned above consisted of 3 layers. An oily layer which was
present between the aqueous and benzene layers was separated, acidified and
extracted with ether. The aqueous layer was likewise separated, acidified and
extracted with ether. The extracts were combined, dried and evaporated to
yield a heavy gum which was crystallized from ethanol to give an additional
2.5 grams of product which melted at 146-147°C. The total yield of 2-
diphenylacetyl-1,3-indandione was 12.7 grams (37%). | [Therapeutic Function]
Anticoagulant | [Agricultural Uses]
Rodenticide: A U.S. EPA restricted Use Pesticide (RUP) when
the formulation contains 3% or more of diphacinone.
Diphacinone is an anti-coagulant rodenticide bait used for
control of rats, mice, voles and other rodents. It is available
in meal, pellet, wax block, and liquid bait formulations, as
well as in tracking powder and concentrate formulations.
It is used in general agriculture and in food-processing areas. The top five uses for diphacinone in California are on
landscapes, general vertebrate pest control, around structures and right of ways, and on oranges. This material is
also used as an anticoagulant medication. Not approved for
use in EU countries. | [Trade name]

If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attenti decontamination and life support for the victims.Emergency personnel should wear protective clothingappropriate to the type and degree of contamination. Airpurifying or supplied-air respiratory equipment should alsobe worn, as necessary. Rescue vehicles should carry supplies, such as plastic sheeting and disposable plastic bags,to assist in preventing spread of contaminationon immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and inducevomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.Obtain authorization and/or further instructions from thelocal hospital for administration of an antidote or performance of other invasive procedures.

Diphacinone is a member of the indandione class of anti-coagulants.
Its fate in rats and mice has been reported but no information on its
degradation in soil or plants has been published. It is metabolised by
hydroxylation and conjugation. | [storage]

Diphacinone is stable in solution at pH 6-9 for 14 days; it is hydrolysed in
less than 24 hours at pH 4 (PM). It is rapidly degraded under conditions of
