Abstract
As a special category of pesticides, chiral pesticides have increased the difficulty in investigating pesticide toxicity. Based on their usage, chiral pesticides can be divided into insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. Over the past decades, great efforts have been made on elucidating their toxicological effects. However, no literature has reviewed the enantioselective toxicity of chiral pesticides since 2014. In recent years, more chiral pesticides have been registered for application. As such, huge research progresses have been achieved in enantioselective toxicity of chiral pesticides. Generally, more researches have remedied the knowledge gap in toxicological effects of old and new chiral pesticides. And the toxicological endpoints being evaluated have become more specific rather than centering on basic toxicity and target organisms. Besides, the underlying mechanisms accounting for the enantioselectivity in toxicological effects of chiral pesticides have been discussed as well. All in all, this review provides the critical knowledge for risk assessments, and help to drive the green-technology of single- or enriched-enantiomer pesticides and formulation of relevant laws and regulations.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2019; 648:703-710. [PMID: 30134211 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2018.08.182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2018] [Revised: 08/14/2018] [Accepted: 08/14/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
The enantiomeric environmental behaviors, bioactivities and toxicities of isofenphos‑methyl enantiomers were characterized systematically in this study. (R)‑Isofenphos‑methyl was degraded preferentially in Yangtze River water and different types of vegetables with an enantiomeric fraction (EF) of 0.6 to 0.96. However, (R)‑isofenphos‑methyl was amplified in both Nanjing (EF = 0.32) and Nanchang (EF = 0.27) soil. Our investigations found that there no bidirectional chiral inversion occurred in either Yangtze River water or soils. The bioactivity of (S)‑isofenphos‑methyl was higher than that of its (R)‑enantiomer against different insect targets, such as Meloidogyne incognita, Nilaparvata lugens, Plutella xylostella and Macrosiphum pisi (3.7 to 149 times). (S)‑Isofenphos‑methyl showed higher toxicity for the nontarget organism (1.1 to 32 times). However, (R)‑isofenphos‑methyl possesses 4.0 times more potency than the (S)-form for the nontarget soil organism Eisenia foetida. This study generally could provide more scientific guidance for the corresponding risk assessments of pesticides in addition to providing a new theoretical basis for scientifically and rationally using isofenphos‑methyl.

Abstract
Despite the fact that the biological processes of chiral pesticides are enantioselective, knowledge of the toxicities of pyraclofos due to enantiospecificity is scarce. In this study, the optical isomers of pyraclofos were separated and their toxicities to butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and Daphnia magna were assessed. Baseline resolution of the enantiomers was obtained on both Chiralcel OD and Chiralpak AD columns. The effect of the mobile phase composition and column temperature were then discussed. The resolved enantiomers were characterized by their optical rotation and circular dichroism signs. The anti-BChE tests demonstrated that (-)-pyraclofos was about 15 times more potent than its (+)-form. However, acute aquatic assays suggested that (+)-pyraclofos was about 6 times more toxic than its antipode. Moreover, the joint toxicity of pyraclofos enantiomers to D. magna was found to be an additive effect. These results demonstrated that the overall toxicity of pyraclofos should be assessed using the individual enantiomers.

Abstract
Chiral pesticides comprise a new and important class of environmental pollutants nowadays. With the development of industry, more and more chiral pesticides will be introduced into the market. But their enantioselective ecotoxicology is not clear. Currently used synthetic pyrethroids, organophosphates, acylanilides, phenoxypropanoic acids and imidazolinones often behave enantioselectively in agriculture use and they always pose unpredictable enantioselective ecological risks on non-target organisms or human. It is necessary to explore the enantioselective toxicology and ecological fate of these chiral pesticides in environmental risk assessment. The enantioselective toxicology and the fate of these currently widely used pesticides have been discussed in this review article.

Abstract
A series of novel phenylpyrazoles containing a 2,2,2-trichloro-1-alkoxyethyl moiety were designed and synthesized via the key intermediate 5-trichloroethylideneimino-3-cyano-1-(2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-4-alkylsulfenylpyrazole (5). The addition reaction of the imine 5 was closely related with the nature of the alcohol. The target compounds were confirmed by (1)H NMR and elemental analysis. The results of bioassays indicated that the target compounds possessed excellent activities against a broad spectrum of insects such as bean aphid (Aphis craccivora), mosquito (Culex pipiens pallens) and diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella). Especially, the foliar contact activity against bean aphid of compound 7h at 2.5 mg kg(-1) was 89%, the larvacidal activity against mosquito of compound 6c at 2.5 microg kg(-1) was 100%, the activity against diamondback moth of compound 7a at 5 mg kg(-1) was 87%, and all of these activities were much higher than the contrast ethiprole. The results of insecticidal activities showed that the two pairs of enantiomers 7d-1 and 7d-2 gave activities without distinctive difference, and it was the similar situation for 7e-1 and 7e-2. Interestingly, the target compounds exhibited high selectivity between diamondback moth and oriental armyworm, both of which are of the order Lepidoptera. The 2,2,2-trichloro-1-alkoxyethyl moiety was essential for high insecticidal activities.
