CAS 2436-73-9: MCPA methyl ester

Description: MCPA methyl ester, with the CAS number 2436-73-9, is an organic compound derived from the herbicide MCPA (2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid). It is characterized by its ester functional group, which contributes to its solubility in organic solvents. MCPA methyl ester is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is primarily used in agricultural applications as a selective herbicide to control broadleaf weeds in various crops. The compound exhibits moderate toxicity to aquatic organisms and can be harmful if ingested or inhaled, necessitating careful handling and application. Its chemical structure allows it to interact with plant growth regulators, making it effective in disrupting the growth of target weeds while being less harmful to grasses. Additionally, MCPA methyl ester is subject to environmental regulations due to its potential impact on non-target species and ecosystems. Proper safety measures should be observed when using this substance to mitigate risks associated with its application.
