| | Fomesafen Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | White crystalline solid or powder. | | Uses | Fomesafen is a protoporphyrinogen oxidae (PPO) inhibitor. | | Definition | ChEBI: Fomesafen is an N-sulfonylcarboxamide that is N-(methylsulfonyl)benzamide in which the phenyl ring is substituted by a nitro group at position 2 and a 2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy group at position 5. A protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitor, it was specially developed for use (generally as the corresponding sodium salt, fomesafen-sodium) for post-emergence control of broad-leaf weeds in soya. It has a role as a herbicide, an agrochemical and an EC 1.3.3.4 (protoporphyrinogen oxidase) inhibitor. It is an aromatic ether, a N-sulfonylcarboxamide, a C-nitro compound, an organofluorine compound, a member of monochlorobenzenes and a member of phenols. It is a conjugate acid of a fomesafen(1-). | | General Description | White crystalline solid. Used as an herbicide. | | Reactivity Profile | Fomesafen is incompatible with acids. | | Agricultural Uses | Herbicide: After July 25, 2003, flumesafen was not permitted
in many countries to be used as an active ingredient on
crops except to control weeds in soybean crops, and white,
kidney and snap beans. Not approved for use in EU countries. Registered for use in the U.S. | | Trade name | BAS 530 04®; FASTER®; FLEX®;
FLEXSTAR; FOMESAFEN® SODIUM; PP 021®;
REFLEX®; REFLEX® 2LC Herbicide (sodium salt);
TORNADO®[C]; TWISTE®[C]; TYPHOON® | | Potential Exposure | Chlorophenoxy herbicide. After July
25, 2003, flumesafen was not permitted in many countries
to be used as an active ingredient on crops except to con trol weeds in soybean crops, and white, kidney and snap
beans. Limited use allowed in some European countries.
Incompatibilities: Slowly hydrolyzes in water, releasing
ammonia and forming acetate salts. | | Shipping | UN2588 Pesticides, solid, toxic, Hazard Class:
6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical Name
Required. | | Waste Disposal | Do not discharge into drains
or sewers. Dispose of waste material as a hazardous waste
in a landfill approved and licensed for the disposal of pesti cides. Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices. Incineration with
effluent gas scrubbing is recommended. Containers must be
disposed of properly by following package label directions
or by contacting your local or federal environmental control
agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office. |
