deet N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide : A monocarboxylic acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of m-toluic acid with the nitrogen of diethylamine. First developed by the U.S. Army in 1946 for use by military personnel in insect-infested areas, it is the most widely used insect repellent worldwide. | 4.67 | 6 | 1 | benzamides; monocarboxylic acid amide | environmental contaminant; insect repellent; xenobiotic |
