Descrição

Phosphinothricin is an herbicide that inhibits the enzyme glutamine synthetase, which catalyzes the synthesis of glutamine from glutamate and ammonia. Phosphinothricin was discovered by scientists at Ciba-Geigy in Switzerland in 1979 and has been used as a selective herbicide for the control of weeds and grasses in agriculture, forestry, and non-crop areas. The basic structure of phosphinothricin consists of a pyridine ring with an attached phosphoramide group. This chemical can be synthesized by reacting ammonium chloride with 2-chloro-4-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-5-[(phosphinothioyl)thio]pyrimidin-4-amine. The analytical method for phosphinothricin is electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).
