Benazolin is a synthetically produced chemical compound from the group of thiazolinones ( thiazolines with a keto group ) or benzothiazolinones . The colorless, crystalline solid is mainly used as a herbicide .

Extraction and presentation

Benazolin can be obtained by reacting 2-chloroaniline with ammonium thiocyanate and ethyl chloroacetate .

Synthesis of benazoline

properties

Benazolin is a flammable colorless solid that is practically insoluble in water. The solubility in water at 20 ° C and pH  3 is only 500 mg · l −1 . The pK S value of the carboxylic acid is - depending on the source - given as 3.04 or 3.6.

use

Benazolin is a herbicide that occurs as a xenobiotic in soil. The effect is based on the inhibition of the auxin transport. It is the starting compound for a number of substances with similar properties, such as its potassium salt (CAS number: 67338-65-2), benazolin-dimethylammonium (38561-76-1) and benazolin-ethyl (25059-800-7).

Admission

In 2002, benazolin was not included in the list of plant protection active ingredients permitted in the European Union . No plant protection products containing this active ingredient are permitted in the EU or Switzerland .
