Informations sur le produit

• Nom: Methyl 3-methyl-2-oxocyclopentane-1-carboxylate
• Marque: Biosynth
• Description: Methyl 3-methyl-2-oxocyclopentane-1-carboxylate (MECCP) is a fungicide that is used in horticulture. It inhibits the growth of fungi by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, which is an important component of fungal cell membranes. MECCP is synthesized by reacting cyclopentanone with acid methyl ester and sodium hydride in methanol. The product can be hydrolyzed to metconazole, which has fungicidal properties. Methyl 3-methyl-2-oxocyclopentane-1-carboxylate can also be synthesized from methyl 2-oxocyclopentane carboxylate ethyl ester and methyllithium. This compound has a high yield and can be used as a substitute for other compounds such as pentachlorophenol, which have been banned due to their toxicity to humans and animals.
