Thifluzamide is a chemical compound from the group of thiazolecarboxamides .
Extraction and presentation
Thifluzamide can be obtained by condensing 2-methyl-4-trifluoromethyl-5-chlorocarbonylthiazole and 2,6-dibromo-4-trifluoromethoxyaniline.
properties
Thifluzamide is a white to brown solid that is poorly soluble in water.
use
Thifluzamide is used as a systemic fungicide in cereals and rice against various fungal pathogens and as a dressing agent against soil-borne fungi. It is absorbed through the roots and leaves of the treated plants and distributed in them. The active ingredient inhibits succinate dehydrogenase . Thifluzamide was developed by Monsanto in the mid-1990s . It was later sold to Rohm & Haas and is now marketed by Dow AgroSciences .
In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, no pesticides with this active ingredient are permitted.
