Product Information
3-Chloro-2-ethylbenzoic acid is a synthetic hormone that is an active metabolite of indoleacetic acid and indoleacetic. It is used as an herbicide and insecticide. 3-Chloro-2-ethylbenzoic acid has been shown to have high activity against all major classes of higher plants, including monocots, dicots, and gymnosperms. 3-Chloro-2-ethylbenzoic acid inhibits the synthesis of certain plant hormones by acting as a competitive inhibitor at the active site on enzymes such as auxin or cytokinin. This inhibits cell elongation in plants, leading to their growth inhibition. 3-Chloro-2-ethylbenzoic acid also acts as a chiral substrate for the enzyme pyrrole reductase, which may lead to its formation of pyrrole rings in the nucleus of cells. The ring system may be formed by reactions with
