Production Methods
Chloramben-diolmine is produced by first making chloramben, the parent substituted benzoic acid herbicide, using the same dependable aromatic substitution and acylation chemistry characteristic of this family of auxinic herbicides. Once the technical-grade acid is isolated and purified, manufacturers form the diolamine (diolmine) salt by reacting chloramben with diethanolamine, generating a stable, highly water soluble ionic form.
Mechanism of action
