NOMENCLATURE
Common name fenamiphos
IUPAC name N-[ethoxy-(3-methyl-4-methylsulfanylphenoxy)phosphoryl]propan-2-amine
Chemical Abstracts name ethyl 4-methylthio-m-tolyl isopropylphosphoramidate
CAS RN [22224-92-6]
EEC no. 244-848-1
APPLICATIONS
Mode of action
Systemic nematicide with contact action. Absorbed by the roots, with translocation to the leaves. Against soil populations of ectoparasitic nematodes, fenamiphos is more persistent and more effective than the sulfoxide metabolite; the sulfone metabolite is least effective. Against plant endoparasitic nematodes, the sulfone is more effective than the sulfoxide.
Uses
Control of ectoparasitic, endoparasitic, free-living, cyst-forming, and root-knot nematodes. Used in bananas, pineapples, citrus fruit, pome fruit, stone fruit, vines, hops, cotton, cocoa, coffee, okra, peanuts, soya beans, cucurbits, tomatoes, potatoes, vegetables, sugar beet, ornamentals, tobacco, and turf. Has secondary activity against sucking insects and spider mites.
