Common name: Dimethomorph
Chemical name:
(E,Z-4-[3-(4-Chlorphenyl)-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acryloyl]morpholin
Chemical class: Fungicide
Molecular formula: C21,H22ClNO4
CAS NO.: 110488-70-5
Properties:
Similar white solid powder, White solid powder,
Content: 95%min, 96.4%, Loss on drying, 1.5%max
0.3%, PH 6.0-9.0, 7.2, Acetone insoluble, 0.5%max.
Mode of action:
Local systemic fungicide with good protectant and antisporulant activity. Only the (Z)- isomer is intrinsically active, but, because of rapid interconversion of isomers in the light, it has no advantage over the (E)- isomer in practice.
Usage:
Fungicide effective against Oomycetes, especially Peronosporaceae and Phytophthora spp. (but not Pythium spp.) in vines, potatoes, tomatoes and other crops. Used in combination with contact fungicides, and applied at 2.0-2.5 kg formulated product/ha.
