“…I t is interesting that Chlordane, which has shown superior toxicity to that of D D T to most insect species (Kearns, Ingle and Metcalf, 1945) wa5 entirely without effect on Heliotlzis and of very slight toxicity to Cacoecia. Only in the case of Agrotis does it show sufficient toxicity to warrant its investigation in the field.…”

“…Insecticidal properties of aldrin were first reported in 1945 [48]. The active ingredient is highly toxicidal and insecticidal but has a relatively short residual life under field conditions at normally applied concentrations.…”

“…But, it was not found to be applicable in field conditions due to its serious toxicity to non-target organisms. Another analogue from the hexachlorocyclopentadiene family named dieldrin is also insecticidal [48]. It is formed as a result of epoxidation of aldrin [50].…”

“…Chlordan is an oily liquid which is obtained by the chlorination of chlordene (IX) with chlorine in boiling carbon tetrachloride or with sulfuryl chloride and Friedel-Crafts catalysts until a composition of CloHeCls is reached (74,75,77,86,94,204,205). The commercial product is a mixture of compounds varying in insecticidal activity, which has been separated by chromatographic adsorption (163, 248).…”
