General Description

2-Propanone, 1-(3,5-dichlorophenoxy)-, also known as 2,4-Dichlorophenyl methyl ketone, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C10H9Cl3O. It is a colorless liquid with a strong odor, commonly used as an herbicide to control broadleaf weeds in various crops and lawns. The compound functions by mimicking the action of the plant hormone auxin, disrupting the normal growth and development of the weeds it targets. It is typically applied as a spray and can be absorbed through the leaves, stems, and roots of the plants. However, it is highly toxic to aquatic organisms and is classified as a possible human carcinogen, so strict safety precautions are necessary when handling and using this chemical.
