2-Chloro-1-(2,4,5-trichlorophenyl)vinyl Dimethyl Phosphate (SD 8447) has shown excellent toxicity to several species of insects in laboratoryy and field tests but is remarkably safe to laboratory mammals in acute and two-week feeding tests. The poor solubility of partition properties of the compound may limit penetration and translocation in mammals so that amounts of the compound in blood and tissues are low enough to be metaboolized wilhout toxic effect.
