Physical Properties
Molecular weight:314.5; Physical form:Colourless to pale yellow liquid, with a mercaptan-like odour. Density:1.057 (20 °C); Melting point:<-25 °C; Vapour pressure:0.35 mPa (20 °C); 0.71 mPa (25 °C); Partition coefficient(n-octanol and water):logP = 3.23; Solubility:Practically insoluble in water (2.3 mg/l, 20 °C). Soluble in aliphatic, aromatic, and chlorinated hydrocarbons, and alcohols.; Stability:Relatively stable to acids and heat. Hydrolysed slowly under alkaline conditions; DT50 (35 °C) 14 d ( pH 4.7 to 9). Photolysed slowly.;

Environmental Profile
Ecotoxicology:
Bees:Relatively non-toxic to honeybees.Birds:Acute oral LD50 for bobwhite quail 142-163, mallard ducks 500-707 mg/kg. LC50 (5 d) for bobwhite quail 1643, mallard ducks >5000 mg/kg diet.Daphnia: LC50 (48 h) 0.12 mg/l.Fish: LC50 (96 h) for bluegill sunfish 0.72-0.84, rainbow trout 1.07-1.52 mg/l.
Environmental fate:
Animals:Tribufos is rapidly absorbed and metabolised; 96% of the administered radioactivity was excreted within 72 hours. Metabolism proceeds by hydrolysis followed by methylation and successive oxidation of butylmercaptan, yielding the main metabolite (3-hydroxySoil:In soil, tribufos is very strongly adsorbed, leaching is extremely unlikely. The half-life under field conditions is 2-7 weeks. The main metabolite is 1-butane sulfonic acid.Plant:Unmetabolised tribufos is the primary residue in treated cotton.
