| Production Methods | The commercial production of 2,4-D-methylammonium begins with purified 2,4-D acid, which itself is obtained through the standard phenoxyacetic acid route involving chlorination of phenol and etherification with monochloroacetic acid. Once isolated, the free acid is dissolved in water or a mixed solvent and neutralised with methylamine, forming the methylammonium salt under controlled pH and temperature to avoid excess amine or unreacted acid. | | Mechanism of action | Selective, systemic, absorbed through roots and increases biosynthesis and production of ethylene causing uncontrolled cell division and so damages vascular tissue.
