Dichlorprop is a chemical compound used as a herbicide and plant growth regulator.

Stereochemistry

Dichlorprop contains a stereocenter, hence there are two enantiomers, the ( R ) -form and the ( S ) -form. Dichlorprop is a 1: 1 mixture ( racemate ) of the ( R ) form and the ( S ) form. The pure ( R ) - enantiomer of diclorprop is called dichlorprop-P and is used in some countries as a pesticide.

The pure ( S ) - enantiomer of diclorprop has no practical significance.

Admission

In the EU states including Germany and Austria as well as in Switzerland no plant protection products with dichlorprop as an active ingredient are permitted.

Dichlorprop-P is approved in Austria and Germany as a post-emergence herbicide against dicotyledonous weeds in grain cultivation. Dichlorprop-P is not listed in the list of approved plant protection products in Switzerland.

safety instructions

Dichlorprop is classified as harmful and, in toxic concentrations, mainly affects the central and peripheral nervous system, although long-term effects from storage in fat and the brain cannot be ruled out. The racemic dichloropropane has a significantly higher toxicity (oral LD 50 value for rats 344 mg / kg body weight) than the pure ( R ) form (825 mg / kg).
