Useful:

• General Description: CHLORDAN TECHNICAL MIXTURE PESTANAL, also known by various trade names such as Belt, ChlorKil, and Octachlor, is a complex insecticide derived from chlorinated cyclodiene compounds. The technical mixture consists of multiple chlordane homologues, including seven-ring analogues synthesized via Diels-Alder reactions involving cycloheptatriene and hexachlorocyclopentadiene. While structurally related to chlordane, these seven-ring homologues exhibit reduced insecticidal activity, likely due to their less rigid molecular framework and asymmetric tricyclododecane structure compared to the more strained cyclopentane-based chlordane derivatives. This diminished efficacy highlights the importance of structural rigidity in the insecticidal potency of chlordane-related compounds.

Concerning seven-ring-homologs in the chlordan series

10.1002/cber.19671000321

The study investigates the synthesis and insecticidal properties of seven-ring homologues in the chlordane series. The researchers used Diels-Alder addition reactions involving cycloheptatriene (CHT) and cycloheptadiene (CHD) with hexachlorocyclopentadiene (HCP) to produce tricyclododecene and other seven-ring analogues of chlordane. The structures of these compounds were confirmed through reactions, UV, and NMR spectroscopy. The study also explored various reactions and subsequent products of these chlordane homologues, discussing their insecticidal properties. Key compounds synthesized include 1,9.10.11.12.12-hexachlor-tricyclo[7.2.1.02.8]dodecen-(3.10) (3), which was obtained through heating compound 1 in dimethylformamide or xylene, and 1.9.10.11.12.12-hexachlor-tricyclo[7.2.1.02.8]dodecen-(3.10) (3), which was synthesized by heating compound 1 in absolute xylene. The study found that while these seven-ring homologues are similar to chlordane in structure, they exhibit significantly lower insecticidal efficacy, possibly due to the asymmetry of the tricyclododecane framework and increased molecular flexibility compared to the strained cyclopentane ring in chlordane derivatives.
