Triallate
Tri-allate or triallate is a selective pre-emergent thiocarbamate herbicide, used to control wild oats and sundry grasses and broadleaf weeds, often co-applied with trifluralin, which is much weaker against wild oats than tri-allate. Residual control can be expected for 6 to 8 weeks. It is used in Australia, and the United States. It was first registered in 1961. In 2001, US agriculture used annually. Tri-allate is a mitosis-inhibitor; its HRAC classification is Group J (Aus), Group K3 (global), Group 15 (numeric). Affected weeds are prevented from germinating, or their shoots will be swollen and bright green. Environmental behaviour Under very dry conditions, tri-allate can persist in soil for several months, and can damage field oats and sorghum. Degradation is dependent on soil microörganisms and moisture levels. Tri-allate is nontoxic to birds and bees, though it is very toxic to aquatic life. It doesn't bioaccumulate in plants, and has low mobility in soil. The aquatic ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Thiocarbamate
In organic chemistry, thiocarbamates (thiourethanes) are a family of organosulfur compounds. As the prefix ''thio-'' suggests, they are sulfur analogues of carbamates. There are two isomeric forms of thiocarbamates: ''O''-thiocarbamates, (esters), and ''S''-thiocarbamates, (thioesters). Synthesis Thiocarbamates can be synthesised by the reaction of water or alcohols upon thiocyanates (Riemschneider thiocarbamate synthesis): :RSCN + H2O → RSC(=O)NH2 :RSCN + R'OH → RSC(=O)NR'H Similar reactions are seen between alcohols and thiocarbamoyl chlorides such as dimethylthiocarbamoyl chloride; as well as between thiols and cyanates. The herbicide Cycloate is produced in this way: : Other related thiocarbamate herbicides include vernolate and triallate (. Salts of thiocarbamate arise by the reaction of amines with carbonyl sulfide: : Reactions In the Newman-Kwart rearrangement ''O''-thiocarbamates can isomerise to ''S''-thiocarbamates. This reaction, which generally require ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
