MCPA Ethyl Ester is a derivative of MCPA which is an herbicide. | [Production Methods]
MCPA-ethyl is produced by first manufacturing and purifying technical-grade MCPA acid through the standard industrial sequence of para-cresol chlorination followed by carboxylation to form the phenoxyacetic acid. The purified acid is then esterified with ethanol in the presence of an acid catalyst, with the reaction typically run under conditions that remove water to drive the equilibrium toward ester formation. After the esterification reaches the desired conversion, the mixture is neutralised and washed to eliminate residual catalyst and unreacted alcohol, and the crude ester is refined, often by vacuum distillation, to meet technical specifications. | [Mechanism of action]
Selective, systemic with translocation. Synthetic auxin. | [Pesticide Type]
