1,4-Dimethyl 2-(chlorosulfonyl)benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate

CAS: 80998-70-5

1,4-Dimethyl 2-(chlorosulfonyl)benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate is a potential herbicide. It is a chlorinated hydrocarbon that has been shown to inhibit plant growth by interfering with the production of ethylene. The mechanism of action for 1,4-dimethyl 2-(chlorosulfonyl)benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate is as an inhibitor of the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS). ALS catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of both branched and linear chains of amino acids. This inhibition leads to reduced levels of the amino acids proline and glutamic acid in plants. These amino acids are important regulators of plant growth and development.
