Environmental fate and properties of pyriproxyfen
Pyriproxyfen is a broad-spectrum insect growth regulator (IGR) with insecticidal activity against public health insect pests such as houseflies, mosquitoes and cockroaches. In agriculture and horticulture, pyriproxyfen has registered uses for the control of scale, whitefly, aphids and fire ants.

Larval Exposure to the Juvenile Hormone Analog Pyriproxyfen Disrupts Acceptance of and Social Behavior Performance in Adult Honeybees. [PDF]
Juvenile hormone (JH) plays an important role in honeybee development and the regulation of age-related division of labor. However, honeybees can be exposed to insect growth regulators (IGRs), such as JH analogs developed for insect pest and vector ...

This work demonstrates an unconventional mechanism in Lewis basic selenium‐catalyzed electrophilic halogenation, where in situ oxidation of selenourea by the halogen source generates hypervalent Se‐imidazolium species. These intermediates function as hydrogen‐bond catalysts to activate N‐haloamide reagents, enabling efficient and mild halogenation of ...
