2-Amino-4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazine may be used in the synthesis of thifensulfuron.
ChEBI: A monoamino-1,3,5-triazine that is 1,3,5-triazin-2-amine substituted by a methoxy group at position 4 and a methyl group at position 6. It is a metabolite of the herbicide thifensulfuron-methyl.
2-Amino-4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazine is formed during the photocatalytic decomposition of sulfonylurea (Sus) herbicide. It is also formed as a thermal decomposition product of chlorsulfuron (a sulfonylurea herbicide) and has been determined by GC using nitrogen-phosphorus detection (NPD).
