It became, therefore, important to study the possible deposition of cyolane residues in the cotton seed, oil and cake of treated cotton plants. For this purpose, C-cyolane was synthesized in our laboratory. The effects of simulated commercial processing procedures on C-cyolane residues were studied. .V0" //S—CH_/-k2 -CH2 + National Research Centre, Itokki, Cairo, Egypt "*"*" Kept, of Radioisotopes, Atomic Energy Establishment, Cairo, Egypt MATERIALS AM) METHODS 14.C-Cyolane ) a Bthylene dithioovanate; This compoun prepares dwa heatiny db molg1 e ethylene dibromide wit mole3 h 2. potassiu f so m thiocyanat absolutn ei e ethanohours0 1 r .lfo After crystallization from ethano produce lth t melted at 88°(lit.m.p. 90°) ((8) (9). b) Cyclic ethylene dithioimido carbonate (ll); Bfchylene dithiocyanate was cyclized by heating with concentrated hydrochloric acid at 100° for 10 hours to yield the hydrochloride of II. 5br purification of the hydrochloride reactioe ,th n mixtur cooleds ewa , neutralized with potassium carbonat extracted ean d with benzene driee Th .d benzene layes rwa saturated with HC1 gas where the hydrochloride of II separated out (m.p. 208°; lit.m.p. 202°) (10).
