NOMENCLATURE
metsulfuron-methyl
Chemical Abstracts name methyl 2-[[[[(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl]benzoate
CAS RN [74223-64-6]
metsulfuron
Common name metsulfuron (BSI, WSSA, ANSI, draft E-ISO, (m) draft F-ISO)
IUPAC name 2-(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-ylcarbamoylsulfamoyl)benzoic acid
Chemical Abstracts name 2-[[[[(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl]benzoic acid
CAS RN [79510-48-8]
APPLICATIONS
metsulfuron-methyl
Mode of action Selective systemic herbicide absorbed through the roots and foliage, with rapid translocation both acropetally and basipetally. Susceptible plants cease growth almost immediately after post-emergence treatment, and are killed in 7-21 days. Surfactants increase the activity of metsulfuron-methyl on certain broad-leaved weeds.
Uses Metsulfuron-methyl controls a wide range of annual and perennial broad-leaved weeds in wheat, barley, rice and oats, by either pre- or post-emergence application, at 4-7.5 g/ha post-emergence.
Packing details
10ML ~200L for liquid formulations, 1G~25KG for solid formulations.
