An insecticidal enantiomer pair consisting essentially of a substantially equimolar mixture of S-4-phenyl-2-indanyl 1R, cis-3-(2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropaneca rboxylate and R-4-phenyl-2-indanyl 1S,cis-3-(2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropan ecarboxylate, its preparation by liquid chromatography, and its utility as an insecticide are described and exemplified. |
