ChEBI: N-Ethyl-N-methyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)benzamide is a member of biphenyls.

A fluorinated fungicide [N-ethyl-N-methyl-4- (trifluoromethyl)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)benzamide (EMTDB) is metabolized by plant cell cultures of Acer pseudoplatanus, yielding approximately 10 fluorinated metabolites observed in the cultures, five of which are identified. The metabolism of EMTDB mostly occurs through ring demethoxylation or mono O- demethylation and N-dealkylation. The more lipophilic derivatives diffuse into the culture medium; in contrast, the more hydrophylic ones remain inside the cells.
