Cloquintocet-Mexyl (CAS 99607-70-2)
QUICK LINKS
Cloquintocet-mexyl (CQMX) is an herbicide created by Dow AgroSciences, and it belongs to the aryloxyphenoxypropionate (AOPP) family of herbicides. As a broad-spectrum, systemic herbicide, Cloquintocet-Mexyl has been utilized to manage a variety of weeds, such as annual and perennial grasses, broadleaf weeds, and sedges. It has proven its effectiveness in controlling a diverse range of weeds across numerous crops, often used in conjunction with other herbicides to enhance its effectiveness. The scientific community has extensively examined cloquintocet-mexyl for its herbicidal efficacy as well as for its potential environmental impact, such as potential contamination of ground and surface water. The mode of action of Cloquintocet-Mexyl involves inhibiting the activity of acetolactate synthase (ALS), an enzyme in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids. Inhibiting ALS results in an accumulation of branched-chain amino acids in the plant, leading to the plant′s eventual demise. Being a systemic herbicide, Cloquintocet-Mexyl is absorbed and transported throughout the plant. It is also photodegradable, breaking down upon exposure to light.
