Description
Teflubenzuron is a fluorobenzoylurea insect growth regulator and a chitinase inhibitor, which achieves insecticidal purposes by inhibiting the normal molting and development of larvae. It is particularly effective against lepidoptera pests and also shows good efficacy against the larvae of whitefly families, diptera, hymenoptera, and coleoptera pests. However, it is ineffective for many parasitic insects, predatory insects, and spiders.
Used in Agriculture:
Teflubenzuron is used as an insecticide for controlling a wide range of insect pests and mites in fruit, vegetable, cereal, and seed crops. It is particularly effective on lepidoptera pests and also works well for the larvae of whitefly families, diptera, hymenoptera, and coleoptera pests.
Used in Vegetables:
Teflubenzuron is used as an insecticide for controlling pests such as cabbage caterpillar and Plutella xylostella during the egg incubation period to 1 to 2 instar. A 2000 to 4000 times diluent of EC can be applied by spraying.
Used in Fruit Trees:
Teflubenzuron is used as an insecticide for controlling pests such as asparagus caterpillar and prodenia litura during the egg incubation period to 1 to 2 instar. A 1500 to 3000 times diluent of EC can be applied by spraying, especially for those resistant to organic phosphorus and pyrethroids.
Used in Cotton and Tea Bush:
Teflubenzuron is used as an insecticide for controlling pests such as cotton bollworm and pink worm during the egg incubation period of the second and third generations. A 1500 to 2000 times diluent of EC can be applied by spraying, with an elimination rate of about 85% after 10 days.
Used in Vineyards, Pome Fruit, Citrus, and Other Crops:
Teflubenzuron is used for controlling Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Aleyrodidae, Hymenoptera, Psyllidae, and Hemiptera larvae on vines, pome fruit, citrus, vegetables, soyabeans, tobacco, and cotton.
Used in Controlling Fly and Mosquito Larvae:
Teflubenzuron is also used for controlling fly and mosquito larvae and the immature stages of locusts.
Chemical Properties:
Pure Teflubenzuron is a white crystal with a melting point of 223-225°C (original compound 222.5°C), a saturated vapor pressure of 0.8×10^-9 Pa at 20°C, and a relative density of 1.68 at 20°C. Its solubility at 20-23°C is 66g/L in dimethyl sulfoxide, 20g/L in cyclohexanone, 10g/L in acetone, 1.4g/L in ethanol, 850mg/L in methylbenzene, 50mg/L in hexane, and 0.02mg/L in water. It is stable at room temperature, with a hydrolysis half-life period of 5 days at pH=7 and 4 hours at pH=9 at 50°C, and 2-6 weeks in soil.
Production Method
Method 1
The addition reaction of 2,6-Difluorobenzamide and 2,4-difluoro-3,5-dichlorophenyl isocyanate
Method 2
preparation of 2,4-Difluoro-3,5-dichlorophenylamine
2,3,4,5-tetrachloronitrobenzene and Potassium fluoride react in DMF solvent at 140℃ for 15h to obtain 2,4-Difluoro-3,5-dichloronitrobenzene，which is then reduced to 2,4-Difluoro-3,5-dichlorophenylamine

Hazards & Safety Information
Category: Pesticide
Toxicity Grade: low toxicity
Acute Toxicity: LD50: 5000 mg/ kg(Rats oral)
Flammability: Flammable with toxic gases of nitrogen oxides, fluorides and chlorides
Storage: in dry ventilated storeroom at low temperature, away from food materials
Extinguishant: dry powder extinguisher, foam extinguisher, sand.
Metabolic pathway
There is limited published information on the metabolism of teflubenzuron
but an IPCS review is in preparation. Metabolic processes reported
are cleavage of the urea bond and hydroxylation of both phenyl rings,
including replacement of a fluorine in the 3,5-dichloro-2,4-difluorophenyl
ring (see Scheme 1).
Degradation
Teflubenzuron is more readily hydrolysed at alkaline pH than in acid
media. The DT50 at 50 °C was 5 days at pH 7 and 4 hours at pH 9 (PM).
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 83121-18-0 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 8,3,1,2 and 1 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 83121-18:
(7*8)+(6*3)+(5*1)+(4*2)+(3*1)+(2*1)+(1*8)=100
100 % 10 = 0
So 83121-18-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

The invention discloses a synthesis method of an insecticide teflubenzuron and an intermediate 2,6-difluorobenzamide of the insecticide teflubenzuron, belonging to the field of pesticides. The synthesis method comprises the following steps: step 1, preparation of 2,6-dichlorobenzylidene chloride: preparing turbid liquid of dichlorotoluene and phosphorus pentachloride, introducing chlorine gas, layering materials by utilizing a gas-liquid separator, collecting a crude product, and rectifying the crude product to obtain the 2,6-dichlorobenzylidene chloride; and 2, preparation of 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile: mixing 2,6-dichlorobenzylidene chloride, acetic acid, zinc chloride, hydroxylamine hydrochloride and sodium acetate, carrying out heating for a reflux reaction, conducting cooling, stirring,filtering and drying successively after the reaction is completed so as to obtain 2, 6-dichlorobenzonitrile. By adopting a one-pot method, a reaction route is shortened, total yield is increased to 67.3% from conventional 55.4%, and cost is greatly reduced.
