2-(2,4,6-Trichlorophenoxy)acetic acid

Description:

2-(2,4,6-Trichlorophenoxy)acetic acid, commonly known as Triclopyr, is a synthetic herbicide primarily used for controlling woody plants and broadleaf weeds. It belongs to the class of phenoxy herbicides and is characterized by its ability to mimic natural plant hormones, leading to uncontrolled growth and eventual death of the target plants. The chemical structure features a trichlorophenyl group, which contributes to its herbicidal activity, and an acetic acid moiety that enhances its solubility in water. Triclopyr is typically applied in forestry, agriculture, and aquatic environments, and it is known for its selective action, allowing it to target specific plant species while minimizing harm to desirable vegetation. The substance is generally considered to have low toxicity to mammals, but it can be harmful to aquatic organisms, necessitating careful application and adherence to environmental guidelines. Its effectiveness and relatively low persistence in the environment make it a valuable tool in integrated weed management strategies.

2,4,6-Trichlorophenoxyacetic acid

CAS: 575-89-3

2,4,6-Trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,6-T) is an alkanoic acid that has been shown to have allelopathic activity. It inhibits the transport of substances across cell membranes and also disrupts the function of lipid bilayers. 2,4,6-T has been shown to be toxic to animals in large quantities and can cause death after oral ingestion. This chemical undergoes biotransformation through a number of metabolic reactions including decarboxylation, glucuronidation conjugation with glucuronic acid or sulfate conjugation with sulfuric acid and amino acids. These metabolites are excreted through urine, bile or feces. 2,4,6-T also binds to proteins in the liver and kidneys where it may interfere with protein synthesis in these tissues.
