Crystalline powder. Used in cereal seed dressing and fungicidal non-mercurial seed dressing with special action against fusarium. Not registered as a pesticide in the U.S.

FUBERIDAZOLE is a benzimidazole and behaves as an amine. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides

FUBERIDAZOLE is classified as moderately toxic. Its probable oral lethal dose in humans is 0.5-5 g/kg or between 1 ounce and 1 pint for a150 lb. person.

Fuberidazole, a benzimidazole, uses include cereal seed dressing; and fungicidal, nonmercurial seed dressing with special action against fusarium. Not reg istered as a pesticide in the U.S.A.

When heated to decomposition, FUBERIDAZOLE emits toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides.

Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respira tion with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with run ning water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Keep victim warm and quiet. Effects of exposure (inhalation, ingestion or skin contact) to substance may be delayed. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves.

Fuberidazole is a benzimidazole based fungicide used as a fungicidal seed treatment of barley.

Fuberidazole is a systemic fungicide used in cereal seed dressing to control a variety of soil and seed borne diseases caused by Fusarium spp. It is also used as an anthelmintic and an inhibitor of enteroviruses.

Limited information is available describing the degradation and metabolic fate of fuberidazole. Information presented below was abstracted mainly from the Pesticide Manual (PM). The major degradation pathways observed include rearrangement of the fury1 moiety under UV light irradiation, hydrolysis and hydroxylation reactions in mammalian systems.

Color Code—Blue: Health Hazard/Poison: Storein a secure poison location. Prior to working with thischemical you should be trained on its proper handling andstorage. Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, wellventilated area.

Fuberidazole (1) is stable to hydrolysis in pure water and sensitive to light with a half-life (DT₅₀) of ca. 15 min (PM).
Photolysis (at 313 nm using a high pressure Hg lamp) of fuberidazole was much faster for the protonated state as compared to the neutral state (Melo et al., 1994), probably via a cyclopropanyl ketone intermediate (see Scheme 1). Reaction of this intermediate with either water or methanol yielded benzimidazole-2-carboxylic acid (2) or its methyl ester (3), methyl 4-oxo-4-(benzimidazol-2-yl)crotonate( 4, both the cis and trans isomers) and 1-methoxybenzimidazole (5) as major degradates (Melo et al., 1992). Benzimidazole (6) and 2,2'-bibenzimidazole (7) were also detected.

Incompatible with acid halides, anhydrides, epoxides, halogenated organics, isocyanates, peroxides, phenols (acidic).
