General description

Isoxaflutole is a novel pre-emergence herbicide widely employed for the protection of corn and sugarcane against broadleaf and grass weeds. Its mode of action involves the facilitation of characteristic foliar bleaching activity in target species preceding the plant death.

Application

Isoxaflutole may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in blackcurrants and soya grain by gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), respectively.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Balance (isoxaflutole, IXF) belongs to a new family of herbicides referred to as isoxazoles. IXF has a very short soil half-life (<24 h), degrading to a biologically active diketonitrile (DKN) metabolite that is more polar and considerably more stable. Further

Macropore flow results in the rapid movement of pesticides to subsurface drains, which may be caused in part by a small portion of macropores directly connected to drains. However, current models fail to account for this direct connection. This research

Isoxaflutole (IFT, 5-cyclopropyl-1,2-oxazol-4yl-alpha,alpha,alpha-trifluoro-2-mesyl-p-tolyl ketone) is a new pre-emergence proherbicide used in maize and sugarcane. Its two main derivatives are a diketonitrile derivative, 2-cyano-3-cyclopropyl-1-(2-methanesulfonyl-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)propane-1,3-dione, called DKN, and a benzoic acid derivative, 2-methanesulfonyl-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid, called BA.
