Beschreibung
Captane is a pesticide belonging to the thiophtalimide
group, mainly affecting agricultural workers. As a
sensitizer and photosensitizer, it can induce contact
urticaria. Its is used as a fungicide and a bacteriostatic
agent in cosmetics and toiletries, particularily in
shampoos. Cases of contact dermatitis were reoprted
in painters, polishers and varnishers.
Chemische Eigenschaften
Captan, when pure, is a colorless crystalline
solid. The technical grade is a cream to yellow powder
with a strong odor. It is commonly dissolved in a “carrier”
which may be combustible.
Verwenden
Captan is used to control a wide range of fungal diseases on many
crops.
Definition
ChEBI: A dicarboximide that is 3a,4,7,7a-tetrahydrophthalimide in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is replaced by a trichloromethyl group. A non-systemic fungicide introduced in the 1950s, it is widely used for the control of fungal diseases in fruits,
vegetables, and ornamental crops.
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Captan is a white solid dissolved in a liquid carrier. Captan is a water emulsifiable liquid. Captan can cause illness by inhalation, skin absorption and/or ingestion. The primary hazard of Captan is that Captan poses a threat to the environment. In case of release immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment. Since Captan is a liquid Captan can easily penetrate the soil to contaminate groundwater. Captan is used as a fungicide.
Air & Water Reaktionen
Slowly hydrolyzed in aqueous neutral and acidic media. Rapidly hydrolyzed in alkaline media. Insoluble in water.
Reaktivität anzeigen
Captan decomposes at or near the melting point. Captan is incompatible with strong alkaline and oxidizing materials, sulfur and (sulfur + moisture).
Hazard
A questionable carcinogen. A skin irritant.
Avoid inhalation of dust or spray mist. Avoid con-
tamination of feed and foodstuffs.
Health Hazard
Vapor irritates eyes. Ingestion causes depression, lachrymation, labored respiration, diarrhea.
Brandgefahr
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating and toxic gases are produced in a fire; they may include sulfur dioxide, hydrogen chloride, phosgene, and oxides of nitrogen.
Landwirtschaftliche Anwendung
Fungicide: Most uses of captan on food crops in the United States have been canceled since 1989. It is still used in apple production, almonds and strawberries. It is often applied to packing and shipping boxes for fruits and vegetables. Captan is rapidly degraded in natural soil by chemical as well as biologic means (estimated half-life, days to weeks). It is also used as a preservative for awnings, draperies and leather, as a root dip and seed treatment. It is also added to paints, wallpaper paste, plastic and leather goods. There are over 320 federally registered pesticide products that contain captan.

Kontakt-Allergie
A pesticide, belonging to the thiophthalimide group, mainly
affects agricultural workers. Being sensitizer and photosensitizer,
it can induce contact urticaria. It is used as a
fungicide and a bacteriostatic agent in cosmetics and toiletries,
particularly in shampoos. Cases of contact dermatitis
were reported in painters, polishers, and varnishers
Sicherheitsprofil
Poison by
intraperitoneal route. Moderately toxic to
humans by ingestion. Moderately toxic
experimentally by ingestion and inhalation
routes. Experimental teratogenic and
reproductive effects. Questionable
carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic
and neoplastigenic data. Human mutation
data reported. When heated to
decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Cl-,
SOx, and NOx.
mögliche Exposition
Captan is a thiophthalimide compound
used as an agricultural fungicide for field crops and storage
of produce and also as a preservative in cosmetics; an overthe-counter-drug.
Environmental Fate
Biological. In water, captan reacted with the fungicide L-cysteine forming a compound
with an absorption maximum of 272 μm which was identified as 2-thiazolidinethione-4-
carboxylic acid. In addition, tetrahydrophthalimide also formed (Lukens and Sisler, 1958).
Soil. The half-lives of captan in soil ranged from 3.5 days (pH 6.4, moisture content
17.5%) to >50 days (pH 6.2, moisture content 1.6%) (Burchfield, 1959). The half-lives of
captan in a sandy loam, clay loam and an organic amended soil under non-sterile conditions
were 10–354, 3.4–587 and 7.0–213 days, respectively, while under sterile conditions the
half-lives were 9.4–373, 2.8–303 and 4.3–191 days, respectively (Schoen and Winterlin,
1987).
Chemical/Physical. Captan undergoes hydrolysis under neutral or alkaline conditions
yielding 4-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboximide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen chloride and sulfur
(Wolfe et al., 1976a). The estimated hydrolysis half-life of captan in a phosphate buffer
solution at pH 7.07 and 28–29°C is 2.96 hours. Between the pH range 2 to 6, the estimated
hydrolysis half-life is 10.70 hours (Wolfe et al., 1976a). Worthing and Hance (1991)reported hydrolysis half-lives of 8.3–32.4 hours and <2 minutes at pH values 7 and 10,
respectively.
Decomposes at or near the melting point (Hartley and Kidd, 1987).
Stoffwechselwegen
Captan contains an unstable trichloromethylthio (sulfenyl) moiety that
has been shown to undergo rapid hydrolytic and metabolic degradation
to tetrahydrophthalimide (2).
Studies of the decomposition of [
35S]captanw ith conidia of Neurospora
crassa (Richmond and Somers, 1968) showed that the trichloromethythio
moiety can be transferred to the sulfur atoms of thiols such as cysteine
and glutathione (Richmond and Somers, 1966). Thus, in the presence of
thiols such as glutathione, captan is cleaved at the N-S bond to form
thiophosgene (3) and other gaseous products such as hydrogen sulfide,
hydrogen chloride and carbonyl sulfide (see Scheme 2). Thiophosgene is
rapidly hydrolysed by water. The trichlormethythio group and thiophosgene
are believed to be intermediates in the formation of thiazolidine-2-
thione-4-carboxylic acid (4) which is an addition product with cysteine. A
thiazolidine derivative of glutathione is also formed (5). Biotransformation
of captan in mammals generates primarily thiophosgene (3) and
tetrahydrophthalimide (2). Tetrahydrophthalimide (2) and various of its
hydroxylated derivatives are excreted in the urine. The thiophosgeneglutathione
adduct (5) subsequently degrades and is eventually excreted
in the urine as 2-thiazolidinethione-4-carboxylic acid (4).

Inkompatibilitäten
Incompatible with tetraethyl pyrophosphate, parathion. Keep away from strong alkaline materials(e.g., hydrated lime) as captan may become unstable. May
react with water releasing hydrogen chloride gas. Corrosive
to metals in the presence of moisture.
Waste disposal
Captan decomposes fairly
readily in alkaline media (pH >8). It is hydrolytically
stable at neutral or acid pH but decomposes when heated
alone at its freezing/melting point. Alkaline hydrolysis is
recommended
