| Chlorimuron-ethyl |
Chemical Name: IUPAC: ethyl 2-(4-chloro-6-methoxypyrimidin-2-ylcarbamoylsulfamoyl)benzoate CAS No.: ethyl 2-[[[[(4-chloro-6-methoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)amino]carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl]benzoate Formula: C15H15ClN4O6S Molecular Weight: 414.82 CAS No.: 90982-32-4 EPA PC CODE: 128901 Structure:
Description: Appearance: white to brown powder. Melting Point: 185-187°C. Vapour Pressure: 0.49n Pa (20°C) Solubility (25°C): 11mg/L (pH5) 1.2g/L (pH7) in water. Kow 320 (pH5), 2.3 (pH7). Imino group is acidic. Specification: 95%TC,25%SC, 25%WP, 25%WDG Uses: Used post-emergence for control of important broad-leaved weeds, such as cocklebur, pigweed, sunflower and annual morning glory, in soya beans and peanuts. Active at 9-13 g/ha. Mode of action: Acts by inhibiting biosynthesis of the essential amino acids valine and isoleucine, hence stopping cell division and plant growth. |
