Synthesis of some thiophosphoric acid esters derived from 4-hydroxy-4'-nitrobiphenyl and their azo-analogues as new biocides

ABSTRACT

Extending our work on organophosphates of potential biological activated, we have now prepared certain new biphenyl analogues 3b-d of the known insecticide parathion [Ia] [O,O- diethyl-O-p-nitrophenyl phosphorothioate; E 605][5], and the phosphonothionate ester EPN [Ib] [O-ethyl O-p-nitrophenyl benzenephosphonothionate][5] for toxicological evaluation
