Supplier: AdipoGen CDXP0187G001
Chemical. CAS 52888-80-9. Formula C14H21NOS. MW 251.39. Synthetic. Thiocarbamate herbicide. Targets the meristematic region, or growing points, of plants, on both roots and shoots. Mode of action is through inhibition of lipid synthesis in plant cells. In particular, it inhibits fatty acid elongase enzymes, altering cell membranes and disrupting vital cell processes. It also effects the development of cutin and suberin, two waxy polymers that help to form plant cuticles. The result is that meristems are inhibited, root and shoot development is stunted, new leaves fail to emerge and shoots twist and turn dark green. Used for post-emergence control of grass and broad-leaved weeds in a wide range of crops. Compound can be used as analytical reference material.
