Bolt, Klaus Golka Acetaldehyde in Ullmann s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 2006, Wiley VCH, Weinheim. DOI 10.1002 14356007.a01 031.pub2 . ref Production and properties Metaldehyde is obtained in moderate yields by treatment of acetaldehyde with various acid catalysts, such as hydrogen bromide . The reaction is reversible, upon heating to about 80 C, metaldehyde reverts to acetaldehyde. Metaldehyde exists as a mixture of stereoisomers , molecules that differ with respect to the relative orientation of the methyl groups on the 8 membered ring. Uses As a pesticide It is sold under various trade name s as a molluscicide , including Antimilice, Ariotox, Blitzem in Australia , Cekumeta, Deadline, Halizan, Limatox, Limeol, Meta, Metason, Mifaslug, Namekil, Slug Fest Colloidel 25, and Slugit. Typically it is applied in the form of slug pellets, which normally include a wheat bait. Metaldehyde acts on the pest by contact or ingestion, and the aqueous environment inside the pest s cells readily hydrolyzes metaldehyde into acetaldehyde , the molecule associated with an alcohol hangover .

Nofootnotes article date November 2011 Image Hazard T.svg right thumb Toxicity symbol for European Toxicity Class I and II Toxicity Class refers to a classification system for pesticide s that has been created by a national or international government related or sponsored organization. It addresses the acute toxicity of agents such as soil fumigant s, fungicides , herbicides , insecticides , miticide s, molluscicide s, nematicide s, or rodenticide s. General considerations Assignment to a Toxicity Class is based typically on results of acute toxicity studies such as the determination of LD50 values in animal experiments, notably rodent s, via oral, inhaled, or external application. The experimental design measures the acute death rate of an agent. The Toxicity Class generally does not address issues of other potential harm of the agent, such as bioaccumulation , issues of carcinogen icity, teratogen icity, mutagen ic effects, or the impact on reproduction . Regulating agencies may require that packaging of the agent be labeled with a Signal Word , a specific warning label to indicate the level of toxicity. Toxicity Class by jurisdiction EPA United States The United States Environmental Protection Agency uses four Toxicity Classes. Classes I to III are required to carry a Signal Word on the label. Pesticides are regulated by the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act FIFRA . Toxicity Class I most toxic requires Signal Word Danger Poison , with Skull and crossbones poison skull and crossbones symbol, possibly followed by Fatal if swallowed , Poisonous if inhaled , Extremely hazardous by skin contact rapidly absorbed through skin , or Corrosive causes eye damage and severe skin burns Class I materials are estimated to be fatal to an adult human at a dose of less than 5 grams less than a teaspoon . Toxicity Class II moderately toxic Signal Word Warning , possibly followed by Harmful or fatal if swallowed , Harmful or fatal if absorbed through the skin , Har ... more details
