Conversion of chrysanthemates to their cyclopropane, episulfide, and epoxide derivatives by addition of methylene, sulfur, or oxygen, respectively, to the 2-methyl-1-propenyl double bond yields products generally of reduced toxicity but enhanced neurophysiological activity and photostability. The reduced toxicity is established with cis-cyphenothrin derivatives administered intracerebrally to mice and topically to house flies and with cis-phenothrin derivatives applied topically to American cockroaches and house flies, even in the presence of piperonyl butoxide for the house flies. In contrast, cyclopropane, episulfide, and epoxide derivatives of phenothrin are more potent than the parent compound in eliciting repetitive firing following stimulation of a cercal sensory nerve of the American cockroach in vitro. The individual 1′R and 1′S isomers of epoxides derived from (1R,cis,αS)cyphenothrin, (1R,cis)phenothrin, and (1R,trans)tetramethrin differ in potency by up to 20-fold for insecticidal activity, >30-fold for intracerebral toxicity to mice, and ∼100,000-fold in the cercal sensory nerve assay. In each case the epoxide isomer of higher Rf is more potent than that of lower Rf when derived from a trans-chrysanthemate and vice versa from a cis-chrysanthemate.
