Furathiocarb, butyl 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuranyl N,N -dimethyl-N,N -thiodicarbamate
(IUPAC), is a yellow viscous liquid, which is sparingly soluble in water
and is readily miscible with most organic solvents.
Furathiocarb is obtained by reaction of N-n-butylmethylcarbamate
with sulfenyl chloride, followed by treatment
of the product with 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-
benzofuranyl N-methylcarbamate. Furathiocarb is applied
as a foliar, soil, or seed treatment.
