Description:
Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) is an organic compound used as a component of pesticide formulations. It is a waxy white solid. It is a synergist. That is, despite having no pesticidal activity of its own, it enhances the potency of certain pesticides such as carbamates, pyrethrins, pyrethroids, and rotenone.It is a semisynthetic derivative of safrole.

Basic Information:
Chemical name: Piperonyl butoxide
MF: C19H30O5
MW: 338.44
CAS: 51-03-6
Appearance: light yellow liquild
Package: 200kg/metal bucket

Mechanism of action:
PBO acts as an insecticide synergist by inhibiting the natural defense mechanisms of the insect, the most important of which is the mixed-function oxidase system, (MFOs) also known as the cytochrome P-450 system. The MFO system is the primary route of detoxification in insects, and causes the oxidative breakdown of insecticides such as pyrethrins and the synthetic pyrethroids - thus when PBO is added, higher insecticide levels remain in the insect to exercise their lethal effect.An important consequence of this property is that, by enhancing the activity of a given insecticide, less may be used to achieve the same result.

PBO does not appear to have a significant effect on the MFO system in humans.PBO is found to be an efficacious, low-potency, neutral antagonist of G-protein-coupled CB1 receptors.

Other synergists for pyrethroid insecticides include Sesamex and "Sulfoxide" (not to be confused with the functional group).
