Cyclanilide is a plant growth regulator that functions by interactting with auxin-regulated processes. Cyclanilide is commonly used on cotton plants to either suppress vegetative growth or accelerate senescence. Cyclanilide is also used as a bioregulator of deciduous fruit trees.
ChEBI: Cyclanilide is a monocarboxylic acid that is cyclopropanecarboxylic acid that is substituted by a 3,5-dichlorophenylcarbamoyl group at position 1. It is a plant growth regulator which is used as a cotton harvest aid. It has a role as a plant growth regulator and a fungicide. It is a dichlorobenzene, a member of cyclopropanes, an anilide and a monocarboxylic acid.

UN2811 Toxic solids, organic, n.o.s., Hazard
Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical
Name Required.
May react violently with strong oxidi-
zers, bromine, 90% hydrogen peroxide, phosphorus
trichloride, silver powders, or dust. Incompatible with silver
compounds. Mixture with some silver compounds forms
explosive salts of silver oxalate. Keep away from reducing
agents, oxidizers, sulfuric acid, caustics, ammonia, aliphatic
amines, alkanolamines, isocyanates, alkylene oxides, epi-
chlorohydrin. Compounds of the carboxyl group react with
all bases, both inorganic and organic (i.e., amines) releasing
substantial heat, water, and a salt that may be harmful.
Incompatible with arsenic compounds (releases hydrogen
cyanide gas), diazo compounds, dithiocarbamates, isocya-
nates, mercaptans, nitrides, sulfides (releasing heat, toxic,
and possibly flammable gases), thiosulfates, and dithionites
(releasing hydrogen sulfate and oxides of sulfur).
Dissolve or mix material with
a combustible solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator
equipped with an afterburner and scrubber. In accordance
with 40CFR165 recommendations for the disposal of pesti-
cides and pesticide containers. noncombustible containers
should be crushed and buried under more than 40 cm of
soil
. Must be disposed properly by following package
label directions or by contacting your local or federal envi-
ronmental control agency, or by contacting your regional
EPA office.
