Difenzoquat Methyl Sulfate could have agricultural uses. It could help reduce downward migration of pesticides in soil/turf to allow it to better target pests.
DIFENZOQUAT METHYLSULFATE is Herbicide; agricultural fungicide.
Poison by ingestion. Moderatelytoxic by skin contact. When heatedto decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of NOx andSOx.
Soil. Though no products were reported, the half-life in soil is approximately 3 months (Hartley and Kidd, 1987).
Photolytic. Degrades photolytically to the volatile monomethyl pyrazole (Hartley and Kidd, 1987).
Chemical/Physical. May react with aluminum releasing hydrogen (Hartley and Kidd, 1987).
