Usage

Uses

Used in Agriculture:
Ethylenediurea is used as a protectant for plants to enhance their resistance to environmental stress, such as ozone injury. It does this by stimulating antioxidant enzyme activity, which reduces the harmful effects of reactive oxygen species and promotes overall plant health and growth.
Used in Plant Growth Regulation:
Ethylenediurea is used as a plant growth regulator to improve root elongation, promote chlorophyll synthesis, and enhance overall plant health. This contributes to better crop yields and more robust plant development.
Ongoing Research:
While ethylenediurea has been widely studied for its positive effects on plants, there is ongoing research to understand its potential long-term impacts on the environment and human health. This research aims to ensure the safe and sustainable use of EDU in agricultural practices.

Method for Preparing Diureido Compounds

The present invention relates to a method for producing diureido by making diamine having 2 to 13 carbon atoms react with urea. The producing method uses alcohol having 3 to 12 carbon atoms as a reaction solvent and uses tetraalkylammonium hydroxide as a catalyst. According to the producing method of the present invention, the diureido can be produced in a high yield and in a short time.COPYRIGHT KIPO 2016

Process for the preparation of asymmetrically substituted ureas, carbamates or thiocarbamates

Process for the preparation of asymmetrically substituted ureas, carbamates, thiocarbamates or substituted isocyanates by reaction of an adduct of isocyanic acid and a tertiary amine with a primary and secondary amine, an alcohol, a thiol or a compound having one or two non-cumulated olefinic double bonds, and a process for the preparation of N-mono- or N,N-disubstituted ureas by reaction of ammonium isocyanate with a primary or secondary amine in a diluent.
