properties

Cyometrinil is a white solid that is practically insoluble in water. Only the Z isomer of the compound is referred to as cyometrinil .

use

Cyometrinil has been used as a seed herbicide safener on sorghum to reduce the phytotoxicity of metolachlor . It was developed by Ciba-Geigy in 1977 and brought onto the market in 1978, but it was not a commercial success because the seeds had negative effects. It was then replaced by Oxabetrinil .

In Switzerland, Austria and Germany, no plant protection products with the active ingredient Cyometrinil are currently approved.
