| | Ethofumesate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Whitish crystals. Does not
hydrolyze with water at neutral pH. | | Chemical Properties | Colorless to white crystalline solid.
Commercial formulations include flowable concentrate,
emulsifiable concentrate, and granular products. Mild aromatic odor. | | Uses | Herbicide, silvicide. | | Uses | Ethofumesate is a herbicide. | | Definition | ChEBI: 2-ethoxy-3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-5-yl methanesulfonate is a methanesulfonate ester that is methanesulfonic acid in which the hydrogen of the hydroxy group has been replaced by a 2-ethoxy-3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-5-yl group. It is an ether, a methanesulfonate ester and a member of 1-benzofurans. | | Agricultural Uses | Herbicide: A major use is to control weeds in sugar beet crops.
