(rac-cis)-Z-Bifenthrin-d5

(Rac-cis)-Z-Bifenthrin-d5 is a powerful synthetic insecticide that is commonly used in the agricultural industry, as well as in residential and commercial settings for pest control. This chemical is a stable isotopically labeled analogue of the popular insecticide, Bifenthrin, which is used to control a wide range of insects such as termites, ants, cockroaches, and mosquitoes. The chemical formula for (Rac-cis)-Z-Bifenthrin-d5 is C23H15D5Cl2F3O2, and it has a molecular weight of 499.44 g/mol. One of the key features of (Rac-cis)-Z-Bifenthrin-d5 is that it contains five deuterium atoms, which are heavy isotopes of hydrogen. This makes it useful for studies involving metabolism, bioaccumulation, and degradation of Bifenthrin in the environment. (Rac-cis)-Z-Bifenthrin-d5 is a highly effective insecticide due to its ability to disrupt the nervous system of insects, leading to paralysis and death. It works by targeting the sodium channels in the neurons of insects, which inhibits their ability to communicate and coordinate movement. While (Rac-cis)-Z-Bifenthrin-d5 is effective at controlling pests, it is important to use it responsibly and follow all safety precautions. Exposure to this chemical can be harmful to humans and animals, and it should only be used by trained professionals in accordance with local regulations.
