Iprovalicarb is a mixture of two isomeric chemical compounds from the group of carbamates .

Extraction and presentation

Iprovalicarb can be obtained by a multistage reaction of isopropyl chloroformate with L- valine in a sodium hydroxide solution and then again with isopropyl chloroformate under basic conditions in a toluene solution. The resulting intermediate is reacted with p -methylphenylethylamine to form iprovalicarb .

Stereochemistry

Iprovalicarb has two stereocenters which are both determined by the synthesis. By using L -Valin [( S ) -Valin] this stereocenter is firmly fixed, ie enantiomerically pure . However, the synthesis of p -methylphenylethylamine leads to the racemate (1: 1 mixture of both enantiomers). For ipovalicarb, this means that it is formed as a mixture of two diastereomers .

properties

Iprovalicarb is a flammable white solid that is very sparingly soluble in water. It is stable to hydrolysis at pH 5 to 9 at 25 ° C.

use

Iprovalicarb is used as an active ingredient in crop protection products. It is used as a fungicide on potatoes and grapevines. On March 30, 1998, Bayer AG applied to the EU to include the connection in Annex I of Directive 91/414 / EEC. It was the first fungicide from the amino acid amide class and occurs in four stereoisomeric forms. It was first approved in Indonesia in 1998 . It is often used as a combination preparation with other crop protection products such as Tolylfluanid , Mancozeb , Folpet and Propineb . The effect is based on the inhibition of cellulose synthase.

Admission

Since July 2002, plant protection products with iprovalicarb can be approved in the states of the European Union. In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, plant protection products (e.g. Melody Combi ) containing this active ingredient are approved.
