Piperophos is a 1: 1 mixture ( racemate ) of two isomeric chemical compounds from the group of phosphorodithioates and piperidines . It was introduced as a selective herbicide by Ciba-Geigy in 1969 .
Extraction and presentation
Piperophos can be obtained starting from 2-methylpiperidine by reaction with chloroacetic acid chloride and O, O -dipropyldithiophosphate .
use
Piperophos works by inhibiting the synthesis of long chain fatty acids (VLFCA). It is used against grass weeds in the cultivation of seeds and rice , often in combination with Dimethametryn in order to control weeds at the same time.
Admission
In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, Piperophos is not contained in any approved pesticides.
toxicology
Piperophos is an anti-androgenic endocrine disruptor .
