The molecule is an organic thiophosphate that is N-methyl-2-[(2-sulfanylethyl)sulfanyl]propanamide in which the thiol group has been converted into the corresponding O,O-dimethyl thiophoshate. Formerly used as an insecticide and acaricide, it is no longer approved for use within the European Union. It has a role as an EC 3.1.1.7 (acetylcholinesterase) inhibitor, an acaricide, an agrochemical, an antibacterial agent and an antifungal agent. It is an organic thiophosphate and an organothiophosphate insecticide. It derives from a 2-((2-hydroxyethyl)sulfanyl)-N-methylpropionamide.
