Butylate is a clear liquid with an aromatic
odor.
ChEBI: Butylate is a tertiary amine.
Herbicide: Classified as a General Use Pesticide (GUP) with
applications limited to corn fields. Not approved for use in
EU countries. A selective herbicide for use on field corn,
sweet corn, and popcorn to control grassy and broadleaf
weeds and seeds in the soil prior to sowing a crop. Often
applied in combination with atrazine and/or cyanazine.

Thiocarbamate esters are combustible.
They react violently with powerful oxidizers such as calcium hypochlorite. Poisonous gases are generated by the
thermal decomposition of thiocarbamate compounds, including carbon disulfide, oxides of sulfur, oxides of nitrogen,
hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and methylamine. Many materials in this group slowly decompose in aqueous solution to
form carbon disulfide and methylamine or other amines.
Such decompositions are accelerated by acids. Flammable
gases are generated by the combination of thiocarbamates
with aldehydes, nitrides, and hydrides. Thiocarbamates are
incompatible with acids, peroxides, and acid halides
