68597-44-4

Usage

Type

Herbicide

Function

Controls the growth of grassy and broadleaf weeds in agricultural crops like soybeans, cotton, and peanuts

Mechanism

Inhibits the biosynthesis of isoprene, which is essential for the production of carotenoids in plants, leading to the death of targeted weeds

Effectiveness

Highly effective against weeds such as morning glory, smartweed, and pigweed

Application

Preor post-emergence treatment

Synthesis and activity of 2-methyl-3-aminopropiophenones as centrally acting muscle relaxants

Some novel 2-methyl-3-aminopropiophenones were synthesized and their centrally acting muscle relaxant activities were,evaluated for an inhibitory effect on the flexor reflex in rats. The structure-activity relationships are discussed. In this series 2-methyl-3-pyrrolidino-1-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-propan-1-one (28) showed significant centrally acting muscle relaxant activity. In addition, the activities of each enantiomer (28-(S) and (R)) were studied along with their acute toxicities. Compound 28-(R) was found to exhibit more potent activity and weaker acute toxicity than 28-(S). Accordingly, compound 28-(R) (NK433) is under development as a novel centrally acting muscle relaxant.

ACYLATION OF CHLOROANISOLES

In the reaction of 2-, 3-, and 4-chloroanisoles with the chlorides and anhydrides of acetic, propionic, and 4-substituted benzoic acids in the presence of 1E-3 mole of ferric chloride 35-80percent of the ketone fraction was obtained.Under the reaction con
