General Description

2,4-Imidazolidinedione,5-[[4-(4-methoxyphenoxy)-3,5-dinitrophenyl]methyl]-5-methyl- is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C18H18N4O8. It is a white to yellow solid that is used as a selective herbicide to control annual broadleaf weeds and grasses in a variety of crops. The compound works by inhibiting the enzyme protoporphyrinogen oxidase, which is involved in chlorophyll synthesis in plants. It is classified as a Group B herbicide, meaning it has a mode of action that is different from other herbicides and is effective in managing resistance. However, it is important to handle and use this chemical with care as it can be toxic to aquatic organisms and may cause skin irritation.
