| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Description]
Amidosulfuron is a broad spectrum herbicide that is used to control broad-leaved weeds. It is volatile, highly soluble in water and, based on its chemical properties, has a high potential for leaching to groundwater. It is not persistent in soil systems but may be persistent in water under certain conditions. | [Toxicity]
Amidosulfuron has a low mammalian toxicity and would not be expected to bioaccumulate. Amidosulfuron is moderately toxic to most terrestrial and aquatic species. |

Herbicide. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Amidosulfuron is an aromatic ether. | [Metabolic pathway]
The hydrolysis of 14C-amidosulfuron in buffer aqueous
solutions under various conditions results in 2-amino-
4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine as the major hydrolyzed
product. In soils, O-demethylated amidosulfuron is the
major degradation product. In mammals and plants,
primary hydroxylation at the pyrimidine ring is a
characteristic degradation reaction yielding
5-hydroxyamidosulfuron. |
