Metabolic pathway
There is limited published information on the metabolism of difenoconazole.
It is slowly dissipated in soils, and metabolism in plants involves
rupture of the triazole linkage or oxidation of the phenyl ring followed by
conjugation.
Degradation
Difenoconazole is stable to hydrolysis and is thermally stable to 150 °C.
DT50 of difenocoazole in natural sunlight was 145 days.
