Description and Uses
Endosulfan (70) [115-29-7], 6,7,8,9,10,10- hexachloro-1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methano-2,4,3,- benzo-dioxathiepine 3-oxide (IUPAC) [The technical product is a mixture of two isomers: α-endosulfan: 3α,5αβ,6α, 9α,9αβ (64–67%) (70a) and β-endosulfan 3α,5aα,6β,9β, 9aα, (29–32%) (70b)]; [959-98-8] (formerly [33213-66- 0]) (β-endosulfan);[33213-65-9] (formerly [891-86-1] and [19670-15-6]) (β-endosulfan) is the adduct of hexachlorocyclopentadiene and 1,4-dihydroxy-2-butene reacted further with SOCl2 to produce 6,7,8,9,10,10-hexachloro- 1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methano-2,4,3-benzodioxa thiepin-3-oxide. The technical product is a brownish solid, mp 70–100 ?C, vapor pressure 1.3 mPa at 25 ?C, soluble in petroleum solvents but having low solubility in water. It consists of about four parts of α-isomer (mp 108 ?C, cis with regard to the sulfite group) and one part of the β-isomer (mp 206 ?C, trans with regard to the sulfite group). The α-isomer, which is somewhat more insecticidal, is slowly converted to the more stable β-isomer at high temperature, and both isomers are oxidized slowly to endosulfan sulfate [1031-07-8] (mp 181 ?C). In acid media, both isomers form endosulfan diol [2157-19-9] (mp 203 ?C).
Endosulfan is used for the control of sucking, chewing, boring insects and mites on a wide variety of crops. It also controls tsetse flies.
