Toxicological data
As far as possible and customary, SI units are used. Unless otherwise noted, the data given apply to standard conditions .

Endothal is a chemical compound from the group of dicarboxylic acids that can be used as a herbicide .

Extraction and presentation

The disodium salt of Endothal can be obtained by a Diels-Alder reaction of furan with maleic anhydride and subsequent hydrogenation of the anhydride in sodium hydroxide solution .

Synthesis of Endothal

The free acid is obtained by neutralization .

use

Endothal can be used as a contact herbicide which is absorbed through the roots and leaves . It is mainly used to control broad-leaved weeds and annual grasses in sugar beets and spinach . In cotton , alfalfa and clover , it is beyond the defoliant used. The effect is based on the inhibition of protein phosphatase 2A in the mitotic signal chain.

Admission

The active ingredient Endothal has not been approved for use in plant protection products in the European Union since 2002 . Endothal was approved as a herbicide in Germany until 1989. No pesticides containing this active ingredient are currently approved in Germany, Austria or Switzerland.
