反応プロフィール
Propham is a carbamate ester. Carbamates are chemically similar to, but more reactive than amides. Like amides they form polymers such as polyurethane resins. Carbamates are incompatible with strong acids and bases, and especially incompatible with strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is produced by the combination of active metals or nitrides with carbamates. Strongly oxidizing acids, peroxides, and hydroperoxides are incompatible with carbamates.

健康ハザード
Moderately toxic herbicide; exhibited low tomoderate toxicity in experimental animalswhen administered by oral, intraperitoneal,intravenous, and subcutaneous routes; skinabsorption is slow; cholinesterase inhibitor;in human ingestion can cause carbamatepoisoning, which can be lethal when takenin large amount; probable lethal oral dosein adult human estimated to be larger thanother carbamate insecticides within the range35–50 g.

環境運命予測
Biological. Rajagopal et al. (1989) reported that Achromobacter sp. and an Arthrobacter sp. utilized propham as a sole carbon source. Metabolites identified were Nphenylcarbamic acid, aniline, catechol, monoisopropyl carbonate, 2-propanol and carbon
dioxide (Rajagopal et al., 1989).
Soil. Readily degraded by soil microorganisms forming aniline and carbon dioxide
(Humburg et al., 1989). The reported half-life in soil is approximately 15 and 5 days at
16 and 29°C, respectively (Hartley and Kidd, 1987).
Groundwater. According to the U.S. EPA (1986) propham has a high potential to leach
to groundwater.
Plant. The major plant metabolite which was identified from soybean plants is isopropyl N-2-hydroxycarbanilate (Hartley and Kidd, 1987; Humburg et al., 1989).
Chemical/Physical. Hydrolysis of propham yields N-phenylcarbamic acid and 2-propanol. The acid is very unstable and is spontaneously decomposed to form aniline and
carbon dioxide (Still and Herrett, 1976). Emits toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides when heated
to decomposition (Sax and Lewis, 1987).

不和合性
Carbamates are incompatible with reduc-
ing agents, strong acids, oxidizing acids, peroxides, and
bases. Contact with active metals or nitrides cause the
release of flammable, and potentially explosive, hydrogen
gas. May react violently with bromine, ketones.

廃棄物の処理
Consult with environmental
regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal
practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant
(≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations
governing storage, transportation, treatment, and waste
disposal. In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recom-
mendations for the disposal of pesticides and pesticide
containers. Must be disposed properly by following pack-
age label directions or by contacting your local or federal
environmental control agency, or by contacting your
regional EPA office.
