:(2S)-2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)propanoic acid
Description:
(2S)-2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)propanoic acid, commonly known as dicamba, is a synthetic herbicide widely used in agriculture for controlling broadleaf weeds. It belongs to the class of compounds known as auxin herbicides, which mimic the natural plant hormone auxin, leading to uncontrolled growth and eventual plant death in susceptible species. The substance is characterized by its chiral center, which contributes to its biological activity. Dicamba is typically applied to crops such as corn and soybeans, and it is effective in both pre-emergence and post-emergence applications. The compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which influences its application methods and environmental behavior. Its chemical structure includes a dichlorophenoxy group, which enhances its herbicidal properties. While dicamba is effective against many weeds, it has been associated with off-target movement and potential damage to sensitive crops, leading to regulatory scrutiny and the development of specific application guidelines to mitigate risks.

(2S)-2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)propanoic acid
CAS:<p>The herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is a broad-spectrum herbicide that inhibits plant growth by interfering with the plant’s ability to produce proteins. It is also used as an analytical method for determining the concentration of 2,4-D in water and soil. The extraction process relies on dispersive solid-phase extraction (DSPE), which uses a polymer resin as a stationary phase to bind the target compound. Fluorescence spectrometry is then used to determine the amount of 2,4-D in the sample. This target compound has been shown to inhibit chymotrypsin and carboxypeptidase enzymes at concentrations of up to 1 mM. These enzymes are involved in protein synthesis and breakdown, respectively. The stability of this compound under various conditions has been determined through chemical tests and model systems involving plants and bacteria.</p>Formula:C9H8Cl2O3Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:235.06 g/mol
