24307-26-4 Usage
Description
Mepiquat chloride (N, N-dimethylpiperidinium chloride), well known as PIX, is a potential systemic plant growth regulator. It is applied in cereals including wheat, oats, barley, rye, triticale and is extensively used in the cotton production. It is intended to increase yield by inhibiting gibberellic acid synthesis. The use of mepiquat chloride results in a shorter and more compact plant, lower leaf area index due to smaller leaf size and earlier maturity.

Shipping
UN3077 Environmentally hazardous substances,
solid, n.o.s., Hazard class: 9; Labels: 9-Miscellaneous hazardous material, Technical Name Required
Incompatibilities
Decomposes in temperatures above
320℃. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine,
fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep
away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids,
oxoacids, epoxides.
Waste Disposal
Do not discharge into drains
or sewers. Dispose of waste material as hazardous waste
using a licensed disposal contractor to an approved landfill.
Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices. Incineration with
effluent gas scrubbing is recommended. In accordance
with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal
of pesticides and pesticide containers. Noncombustible containers should be compacted and buried under more than
16 in/40 cm. of soil. Must be disposed properly by
following package label directions or by contacting your
local or federal environmental control agency, or by
contacting your regional EPA office.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 24307-26-4 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,4,3,0 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 6 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 24307-26:
(7*2)+(6*4)+(5*3)+(4*0)+(3*7)+(2*2)+(1*6)=84
84 % 10 = 4
So 24307-26-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Synthetic method for co-production of 2-hydroxy-benzonitrile and plant growth regulator
-
Paragraph 0073; 0075-0076; 0080; 0082-0083, (2021/06/26)
The invention relates to the field of pesticides, and discloses a synthetic method for co-production of 2-hydroxy-benzonitrile and a plant growth regulator. The method comprises the steps of 1) in the presence of an aprotic polar solvent, enabling 2-methoxybenzonitrile and lithium chloride to be subjected to a contact reaction to obtain 2-hydroxy-benzonitrile and chloromethane gas; and (2) carrying out quaternization reaction on the chloromethane gas obtained in the step (1) and a solution containing N-methylpiperidine or a solution containing N-methylmorpholine to obtain mepiquat chloride or mepiquat chloride. The method is green and environment-friendly, mild in reaction condition and simple and convenient to operate, the 2-hydroxy-benzonitrile can be obtained at high yield, and the mepiquat chloride or the sulfonamide is co-produced at the same time, so that zero emission of tail gas is achieved.
Patch preparations for treating plants
-
, (2008/06/13)
The following invention introduces a patch preparation for treating plants, whereas the patch preparations comprise a chemical layer composed of at least one agrochemically active compound, at least one adhesive and optionally, one or more additives. The components are dispersed in a matrix state on a substrate which are then introduced on the roots of the plant to be treated.
