Propanil

Description:
Propanil, with the CAS number 709-98-8, is an organic compound classified as an aromatic amide. It is primarily used as a herbicide in agricultural applications, particularly for controlling weeds in rice cultivation. Propanil is characterized by its chemical formula, which includes a propyl group attached to an aniline structure, contributing to its herbicidal properties. The compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid, with moderate solubility in water and higher solubility in organic solvents. Propanil acts by inhibiting photosynthesis in target plants, leading to their death. It has a relatively low toxicity profile for mammals, but care should be taken to minimize exposure, as it can be harmful to aquatic organisms. Environmental persistence and degradation pathways are important considerations in its use, as they influence its impact on ecosystems. Overall, propanil is an effective tool in agricultural weed management, but its application must be managed to mitigate potential environmental risks.
