Usage

General Description

1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-[2-methyl-5-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]urea, also known as propyzamide, is a chemical compound used in agriculture as a herbicide. It is a selective inhibitor of cellulose biosynthesis in plants, and is commonly used to control grassy weeds in various crops such as soybeans, sunflowers, and potatoes. Propyzamide works by inhibiting the formation of cell walls in the target weeds, leading to their death. It is classified as a urea herbicide and is considered to have a low toxicity to mammals and non-target organisms when used properly.
