Term Name: sulfoxaflor
Synonyms: [(Xi)-methyl(oxo){(1Xi)-1-[6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl]ethyl}-lambda(6)-sulfanylidene]cyanamide, [methyl(oxo){1-[6-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridyl]ethyl}-lambda(6)-sulfanylidene]cyanamide, GF 2032, GF 2372, Isoclast, N-[methyloxido[1-[6-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinyl]ethyl]-lambda(4)-sulfanylidene]cyanamide, sulfoxaflore, Transform
Definition: A mixture of the four diastereoisomers arising from the two tetrahedral stereocentres of [methyl(oxido){1-[6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl]ethyl}-lambda(6)-sulfanylidene]cyanamide (the sulfur atom and the carbon attached to position 3 of the pyridine ring). [Both E- and Z-isomers involving the S=N double bond and the cyano group exist, but they interconvert rapidly at r.t.]. A nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist in insects, sulfoxaflor is used as an insecticide, particularly for the control of aphids.
