Uses
Diethofencarb is a systemic carbamate fungicide with both
protective and curative activities used for the control especially
of benzimidazole-resistant strains of fungi, including Botrytis spp.,
Cercosporu spp. and Venturia spp. It is almost ineffective against benzimidazole-
susceptible strains. It is used on vines, cucurbits, tomatoes,
citrus, vegetables and other crops.
Uses
Agricultural fungicide.
Uses
Diethofenacarb is a pesticide used on crops. It is a fungicide commonly used in China.
Definition
ChEBI: A carbamate ester that is the isopropyl ester of (3,4-diethoxyphenyl)carbamic acid. A fungicide with strong activity against Botrytis cinerea and benzimidazole-resistant strains of Botryis spp.
Hazard
Low toxicity by ingestion, inhalation, and
skin contact.
Metabolic pathway
In aerobic upland soils under laboratory conditions, the
half-life of 14C-diethofencarb is 0.3-6.2 days and the
major metabolite is a nitrated derivative at the
6-position of the phenyl ring. Diethofencarb slowly
degrades under anaerobic upland conditions and
hardly degrades in sterilized soils.
