CAS 37924-13-3

Perfluidone

Description:

Perfluidone, with the CAS number 37924-13-3, is a chemical compound classified as a herbicide. It is primarily used in agricultural applications for the control of various weeds in crops. Perfluidone exhibits selective herbicidal properties, meaning it can effectively target specific weed species while minimizing harm to desirable plants. The compound functions by inhibiting certain biochemical pathways in plants, disrupting their growth and development. It is typically applied in pre-emergent or post-emergent stages, depending on the target weeds and crop types. Perfluidone is characterized by its relatively low toxicity to mammals, making it a safer option for use in agricultural settings when applied according to recommended guidelines. Additionally, it has a moderate environmental persistence, which necessitates careful management to prevent potential runoff and contamination of water sources. As with all chemical substances, proper handling and adherence to safety protocols are essential to mitigate any risks associated with its use.

Perfluidone

CAS: 37924-13-3

Perfluidone is a systematic herbicide, which is a synthetic chemical compound with a specific mode of action targeting pre-emergent weed growth. It functions by inhibiting the synthesis of carotenoids, essential pigments in photosynthesis, thereby disrupting the cellular processes required for plant growth. This inhibition leads to an accumulation of toxic intermediates, causing the bleaching and eventual death of susceptible plant tissues.
