WHIP® | Potential Exposure | A chlorophenoxy/aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide used to control annual and perennial
grassy weeds in potatoes, soy beans, beans, beets, vegetables, flax, ground nuts, rape, and cotton.
Incompatibilities: Decomposed by acids and alkalis. May
react with strong oxidizers such as chlorates, peroxides,
nitrates, etc | Environmental Fate | Soil. Hydrolyzes rapidly in soil forming fenoxaprop acid, ethyl alcohol, 6-chloro-2,3dihydrobenzoxazole-2-one and 4-(6-chloro-2-benzoxazolyloxy) phenol (Wink and Luley, 1988; Humburg et al., 1989). Under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, the half-life was less than 24 hours (Humburg et al., 1989). Plant. The major degradation product identified in crabgrass, oats and wheat was 6chloro-2,3-dihydrobenzoxazol (Lefsrud and Hall, 1989). Photolytic. Susceptible to degradation by UV light (Humburg et al., 1989).
