title: Evaluation of compounds for insecticidal activity on adult mosquitos. 4. Insecticidal activity and physical properties of some halogenated organophosphorus esters.
abstract: The effects of changes in structure upon toxicity to adult mosquitos and upon physical properties which are important in determining contact effectiveness and residual activity are described for a group of O,O-dialkyl O-halogenated-phenyl phosphates, phosphorothionates and phosphamido(thio)ates. This group includes such established insecticides as fenchlorphos, bromophos and iodofenphos.
