Cyantraniliprole Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a Cyantraniliprole production plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Cyantraniliprole production, including the cost of Cyantraniliprole production, Cyantraniliprole plant cost, Cyantraniliprole production costs, and the overall Cyantraniliprole production plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Cyantraniliprole production plant. These encompass production processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Cyantraniliprole, an anthranilic diamide insecticide (IRAC Group 28), targets ryanodine receptors in insects to induce muscle paralysis. It is used to control chewing and sucking pests such as lepidopterans (caterpillars, bollworms), aphids, whiteflies, thrips, wireworms, white grubs, and leafhoppers. It is applied to over 100 crops, including cotton, vegetables (tomatoes, peppers, potatoes), fruits (citrus, apples, grapes), cereals (maise, soybeans), and legumes.

It supports integrated pest management through various application methods like foliar sprays, seed treatments, and soil drenches. Additionally, it offers prolonged systemic activity, low environmental persistence, and minimal impact on beneficial insects while promoting crop yields and quality without phytotoxicity.

The market growth for Cyantraniliprole is propelled by surging demand for high-yield crops amid a growing global population, driving the need for effective pest control in high-value segments like fruits, vegetables, cereals, cotton, and speciality crops. Its integration into sustainable integrated pest management (IPM) programs, low toxicity to beneficial insects like bees, and compatibility with eco-friendly practices such as precision agriculture and organic farming boost its market growth.

Its alignment with regulatory standards for residue-free produce in export markets contributes to its demand. Additional drivers include rising pest pressures, technological advancements in formulations (e.g., seed treatments, nano-encapsulation), and opportunities from upcoming patent expiry in 2026, enabling generic entry and expanded adoption in regions like North America, Asia, and Europe. Industrial Cyantraniliprole procurement is influenced by high production costs from complex anthranilic diamide synthesis, specialised intermediates, high-purity requirements, as well as advanced formulations like suspension concentrates needing precise particle sizes, wetting agents, and solvent-free processes.

Raw Material for Cyantraniliprole Production

According to the Cyantraniliprole production plant project report, the various raw materials for Cyantraniliprole production include pyrazole and pyridine derivatives.

Manufacturing Process of Cyantraniliprole

The extensive Cyantraniliprole production cost report consists of the following major industrial production process:

1. Production via a multi-step chemical synthesis: The production process of cyantraniliprole involves a multi-step chemical synthesis starting with pyrazole and pyridine derivatives (3-bromo-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylic acid with anthranilic amides (e.g., 2-amino-5-chloro-N,3-dimethylbenzamide). Major steps include bromination, introduction of nitrile groups, and formation of the carboxamide functional group to build the core anthranilic diamide structure. The process further involves purification steps such as preparing aqueous slurries, controlled stirring at specific temperatures (generally 25-80 degree Celsius), and solid separation techniques including filtration, sedimentation, and centrifugation to obtain the high-purity final active ingredient cyantraniliprole.

Properties of Cyantraniliprole

Cyantraniliprole (C19H14BrClN6O2, molecular weight 473.7 g/mol) appears as an off-white, odourless solid powder with a melting point of 217-224 degree Celsius (decomposes ~350 degree Celsius). It has a density of 1.38-1.50 g/cm³ at 20 degree Celsius, extremely low vapour pressure (5.133 × 10?¹5 Pa), and moderate water solubility at pH 5.6. It is chemically stable under neutral conditions but hydrolyses rapidly at pH 9 (DT50 1.8 days) versus slowly at pH 4 (DT50 261 days), with low photolysis quantum yield (φ = 1.195 × 10?4), pKa 8.8, and technical purity ≥930 g/kg. It functions as an anthranilic diamide ryanodine receptor agonist targeting insect muscle paralysis. These properties enable systemic/translaminar activity, low environmental persistence, non-volatility, and suitability for formulations like 10.26% OD suspension concentrates.
