FONOFOS Usage And Synthesis
Chemical PropertiesYellow liquid. Insoluble in water; miscible with organic solvents.
Chemical PropertiesFonofos is a pale yellow liquid with a pun gent, mercaptan-like odor.
Chemical PropertiesFonofos is a highly toxic compound. It is sparingly soluble in water, but soluble in acetone, ethanol, xylene, and kerosene. It has been grouped by the US EPA under RUP and hence requires special handling by qualifi ed, certifi ed, and trained workers. Fonofos was used as a soil insecticide, which resulted in its direct release to the environment. It was primarily used on corn crops, sugar cane, peanuts, tobacco, turf, and some vegetable crops. It controls aphids, corn borer, corn root-worm, corn wire-worm, cutworms, white grubs, and some maggots. Formulations of fonofos include granular, microgranular, emulsifi able concentrate, suspension concentrate, microcapsule suspension, and for seed treatment
UsesSoil insecticide used to control rootworms, wireworms, crickets and similar crop pests in vegetables, sorghum, ornamentals, cereals, maize, vines, olives, sugar beet, sugarcane, potatoes, groundnuts, tobacco, turf and fruit crops.
UsesSoil insecticide.
UsesFonofos is used to control soil insects in a number of crops and in turf.
DefinitionChEBI: Fonofos is an organic thiophosphate and an organothiophosphate insecticide. It has a role as an EC 3.1.1.7 (acetylcholinesterase) inhibitor, an EC 3.1.1.8 (cholinesterase) inhibitor and an agrochemical.
General DescriptionLight-yellow liquid with a pungent mercaptan-like odor. Used primarily as an insecticide for corn.
Air & Water ReactionsVery slightly soluble in water.
Reactivity ProfileOrganothiophosphates, such as FONOFOS, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides. It is sparingly soluble in water but soluble in acetone, ethanol, xylene, and kerosene.
HazardCholinesterase inhibitor.
Health HazardCholinesterase inhibitor; highly toxic byingestion and skin absorption; exhibitsacute, delayed, and chronic poisoning; toxicsymptoms include headache, blurred vision,pinpoint pupils, salivation, tearing, musclespasms, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea,seizure, shortness of breath, and respiratoryarrest; ingestion of 0.5–29 can cause deathto adult humans; median lethal dose (oral)in rat reported in the literature varies at3–25 mg/kg; bioaccumulation potential ofthis toxicant is expected to be high becauseof high K ow (8000):
LD50 oral (rat): 3–25 mg/kg
LD50 oral (dog): 3.3 mg/kg
LD50 skin (rabbit): 25 mg/kg
LD50 skin (rat): 147 mg.
Health HazardFONOFOS is a cholinesterase inhibitor. It can cause severe symptoms and death from respiratory arrest.
Health HazardFonofos is highly toxic like many other organophosphate pesticides to humans and animals. Exposure to fonofos induces clinical signs of toxicity with typical symptoms of poisoning and cholinesterase inhibition. Accidental ingestion of fonofos by occupational workers results in signs and symptoms of acute intoxication, including muscarinic, nicotinic, and CNS manifestations. Symptoms of fonofos poisoning is a delayed process and occur within a few minutes to 12 h after exposure. Early symptoms of poisoning include, but are not limited to, blurred vision, pinpoint pupils, headache, dizziness, depression, tremors, salivation, diarrhea, and labored breathing. Skin absorption of fonofos causes sweating and muscle twitching, while eye contact leads to severe tearing, pain, and blurred vision. Prolonged exposures to high concentrations of fonofos lead to respiratory failure and death. There are no reports indicating that fonophos is mutagenic, teratogenic, or carcinogenic in animals and humans. Fonofos registration was cancelled in 1999, therefore, it is not considered an environmental contaminant of concern at the present time.
Fire HazardWhen FONOFOS is heated to decomposition, FONOFOS can emit highly toxic fumes of phosphorus oxides.
Agricultural UsesInsecticide: It is a soil organophosphate insecticide primarily used on corn. It was also used on maize, cereals, sorghum, fruit, olives, potatoes, sugar cane, peanuts, tobacco, turf, and some vegetable crops. It controls aphids, corn borer, corn rootworm, corn wireworm, cutworms, white grubs, symphylins, and other soil pests including some maggots. It was available in granular, microgranular, emusifiable concentrate, suspension concentrate, microcapsule suspension, and seed treatment. Not registered for use in the U.S. or in EU countries. There are 16 global suppliers.
Trade nameCAPFOS®; CUDGEL®; DIFONATE®; DYFONATE®[C]; DYPHONATE®; DOUBLE DOWN®; STAUFFER-2790
Safety ProfilePoison by ingestion and skin contact. An insecticide. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of POx and SOx.
Potential ExposureA potential danger to those involved in the manufacture, formulation and application of this soil insecticide which is used for control of corn rootworms, wireworms, cutworms, symphylins, and other soil pests. Incompatibilities: Strong acids, alkalies.
Environmental FateSoil. The half-life for fonofos in soil incubated in the laboratory under aerobic conditions ranged was 25 days (Lichtenstein et al., 1977). In field soils, the half-lives for fonofos ranged from 24 to 102 days (Kiigemgi and Terriere, 1971; Schulz and Lichtenstein, 1971; Mathur et al., 1976; Talekar et al., 1977).
Plant. In plants, fonofos is oxidized to the phosphonothioate (Hartley and Kidd, 1987). Oat plants were grown in two soils treated with [14C]fonofos. Most of the residues remained bound to the soil. Less than 2% of the applied [14C]fonofos was re
Chemical/Physical. The hydrolysis half-lives of fonofos in a sterile 1% ethanol/water solution at 25°C and pH values of 4.5, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0, were 87, 50, 41, 22 and 6.9 weeks, respectively (Chapman and Cole, 1982). Emits toxic nitrogen and

Metabolic pathwayThe metabolism of fonofos in plants and animals follows similar pathways, with both activation and degradative steps occurring as primary metabolic events. The former involves oxidative desulfuration to the active acetylcholinesterase inhibitor fonofos oxon. The oxon is hydrolysed rapidly in most biological systems and the resulting thiophenol is very rapidly metabolised via S-methylation, thiooxidation, ring hydroxylation and conjugation.

DegradationFonofos is hydrolysed in acidic and alkaline media (PM).
Waste DisposalThis phosphono compound is reported to be satisfactorily decomposed by hypochlorite. In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal of pesticides and pesticide containers. Must be disposed properly by following package label directions or by contacting your local or federal environmental control agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office.
