| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Pyribenzoxim is a post-emergence herbicide. It has a low aqueous solubility and is volatile. Whilst data is sparse it indicates that the chemical is not persistent in soil systems. It has a low mammalian toxicity and is a recognised irritant. It is moderately toxic to birds, fish and honeybees. | [Chemical Properties]
The pure product is a white solid. Its mp is 128-130°C, and its vapor pressure is <7.4×10-6 Pa. Its solubility in water at 25°C is 3.5 mg/L. Its field half-life is 7 days. | [Uses]
Pyribenzoxim can be used in biological study of production of acetolactate synthase inhibitor herbicide tolerant Brassica napus mutants. | [Production Methods]
Pyribenzoxim is commercially produced through a convergent 4–6 step synthesis that begins with the preparation of the 4,6-dimethoxy-2-(methylsulfonyl)pyrimidine core via chlorination of 4,6-dihydroxypyrimidine, followed by methoxylation using sodium methoxide in methanol and selective oxidation of the 2-methylthio group to methylsulfonyl. Separately, the benzoxazinone moiety is constructed from 2-amino-5-chlorobenzoic acid through cyclocondensation with benzoyl chloride under basic conditions. The key coupling occurs via nucleophilic aromatic substitution, where the deprotonated benzoxazinone displaces the sulfonyl group yielding pyribenzoxim after acidification and crystallisation from ethanol or toluene. | [Mechanism of action]
Broad-spectrum and inhibits plant amino acid synthesis - acetohydroxyacid synthase AHAS. | [Pesticide Type]
