Pencycuron is a chemical compound from the group of phenylureas .
Extraction and presentation
Pencycuron can be obtained by reacting 4-chlorobenzoyl chloride with cyclopentylamine and then with phenyl isocyanate .
use
Pencyuron has been used as a fungicide , especially against Rhizoctonia solani , since 1984 . Pencycuron works by inhibiting cell division .
Admission
After the approval application was withdrawn, the EU Commission decided in December 2008 not to include pencyuron in the list of active ingredients permitted for plant protection products. In response to a new application, pencyuron was finally added to this list for use as a fungicide in 2011. In Germany, Switzerland and Austria, plant protection products with the active ingredient pencycuron are approved.
