    Chlorimuron Ethyl

    3,058,900.00Rp

    Chlorimuron Ethyl is sulfonylurea herbicidal agent.

    Mechanism of Action Chlorimuron Ethyl inhibits actetolactate synthase (ALS), an enzyme involved in synthesis of branched chain amino acids including valine, leucine, and isoleucine.
    Plant Biology Applications Inhibition of ALS can lead to oxidative stress and a decrease in root nodule formation. Compared to other herbicides, chlorimuron ethyl is a very potent herbicide.
    Molecular Formula C15H15ClN4O6S
