N′-(2,3-Dichlorophenyl)-N,N-dimethylurea

Description:

N′-(2,3-Dichlorophenyl)-N,N-dimethylurea, commonly known as a herbicide, is characterized by its chemical structure that includes a urea moiety substituted with a dichlorophenyl group and two dimethyl groups. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is known for its role in inhibiting specific biochemical pathways in plants, particularly affecting photosynthesis and growth regulation. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which influences its application and environmental behavior. The presence of chlorine atoms in its structure contributes to its biological activity and potential toxicity to non-target organisms. As with many chemical substances, safety precautions are necessary when handling it, as it may pose risks to human health and the environment. Its use is regulated in many regions, and it is important to follow guidelines for application and disposal to mitigate any adverse effects.
