2,4-D 1-butyl ester (CAS 94-80-4)
QUICK LINKS
2,4-D 1-butyl ester is a auxin herbicide that functions by mimicking the action of the plant hormone auxin. It is absorbed by the leaves and stems of plants and translocated to the meristematic tissues, where it induces uncontrolled growth, leading to the death of the plant. At the molecular level, 2,4-D 1-butyl ester disrupts the normal growth regulation processes by binding to and activating specific auxin receptors, leading to the upregulation of genes involved in cell division and elongation. This results in abnormal growth patterns, such as twisting and curling of leaves, and ultimately leads to the death of the plant. Its mechanism of action involves interfering with the normal hormonal balance of the plant, disrupting its growth and development.
