| Notes: | Sulfoxaflor contains 2 tetrahedral stereogenic atoms (the sulfur atom, and the carbon atom attached to position 3 of the pyridine ring), and is a mixture of the 4 possible stereoisomers. Both (E)- and (Z)-isomers (involving the S=N double bond and the cyano group) exist, but they rapidly interconvert at ambient temperatures. The bonding number of the sulfur atom is 6, but CAS uses additive nomenclature for the O= attached to the sulfur, and so the superscript to lambda is 4 in the CAS name. |
