  2. Atrazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrazine

    Atrazine was invented in 1958 in the Geigy laboratories as the second of a series of 1,3,5-triazines. [26] Atrazine is prepared from cyanuric chloride, which is treated sequentially with ethylamine and isopropylamine. Like other triazine herbicides, atrazine functions by binding to the plastoquinone-binding protein in photosystem II, which ...

  3. Atrazine chlorohydrolase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrazine_chlorohydrolase

    Atrazine Hydroxyatrazine is a hydrolase (an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of a chemical bond ), which acts on halide bonds in C-halide compounds. In 1993, pseudomonas sp. strain ADP was shown to degrade atrazine to cyanuric acid via three steps, the first of which is a dechlorination. [2]

  4. Cyanuric chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanuric_chloride

    Cyanuric chloride is an organic compound with the formula (NCCl) 3. This white solid is the chlorinated derivative of 1,3,5-triazine. It is the trimer of cyanogen chloride. [1] Cyanuric chloride is the main precursor to the popular but controversial herbicide atrazine.

  5. Herbicide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbicide

    Complementary to mechanism-based classifications, herbicides are often classified according to their chemical structures or motifs. Similar structural types work in similar ways. For example, aryloxphenoxypropionates herbicides ( diclofop chlorazifop , fluazifop ) appear to all act as ACCase inhibitors. [ 19 ]

  6. 1,3,5-Triazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,3,5-Triazine

    1,3,5-Triazine, also called s-triazine, is an organic chemical compound with the formula (HCN) 3. It is a six-membered heterocyclic aromatic ring, one of several isomeric triazines. s-Triazine —the "symmetric" isomer—and its derivatives are useful in a variety of applications.

  7. List of herbicides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_herbicides

    This is a list of herbicides. These are chemical compounds which have been registered as herbicides . The names on the list are the ISO common name for the active ingredient which is formulated into the branded product sold to end-users. [ 1 ]

  8. Triazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triazine

    A well known triazine is melamine (2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazine). With three amino substituents, melamine is a precursor to commercial resins. Guanamines are closely related to melamine, except with one amino substituent replaced by an organic group.

  9. Mesotrione - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesotrione

    Mesotrione may be pre-mixed with other herbicides to provide more complete weed control. For example, Acuron is the name used by Syngenta for a mixture containing bicyclopyrone, atrazine and S-metolachlor in addition to mesotrione. Brand names for mesotrione include Callisto, Instigate, Meristo, Resicore and Tenacity.
