CAS 81334-34-1: Imazapyr
Description:Imazapyr is a systemic herbicide belonging to the imidazolinone class, primarily used for the control of a wide range of annual and perennial weeds, as well as woody plants. It functions by inhibiting the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), which is crucial for the synthesis of essential amino acids in plants. This selective herbicide is effective in various agricultural and non-agricultural settings, including forestry, rights-of-way, and industrial sites. Imazapyr is characterized by its relatively low volatility and high solubility in water, which facilitates its uptake by plant roots and foliage. It is typically applied pre-emergence or post-emergence, depending on the target species and application method. The compound has a moderate environmental persistence, and its degradation is influenced by factors such as soil type, temperature, and microbial activity. While it is generally considered safe for use when applied according to label instructions, precautions should be taken to minimize potential impacts on non-target species and the surrounding ecosystem.
