Chlorsulfuron is a chemical compound from the group of sulfonylureas and triazines .
history
Chlorsulfuron was first approved in the United States in 1982 for use on food crops (wheat, barley, and forage crops), grass, and tree plantings by EI du Pont de Nemours and Company , making it the first approved acetolactate synthase inhibitor. Additional products have been registered since 1988, mostly also by DuPont.
Extraction and presentation
Chlorsulfuron may be made of o-chloroaniline by multistage reaction with sodium nitrite and hydrogen chloride and subsequent reaction of the intermediate with sulfur dioxide and copper (I) chloride , ammonia , ethyl chloroformate and subsequent reaction with 2-amino-4-methoxy-6-methyl-triazine recovered .
use
Chlorsulfuron is used as a herbicide . It is a sulfonylurea herbicide for the selective pre- and post-emergence control of weeds and grasses in cereals.
Admission
In some EU countries, chlorsulfuron is approved as a plant protection product , but not in Germany, Austria or Switzerland.
