Aziprotryne is a herbicide that is considered obsolete. It is moderately soluble in water, volatile and not expected to leach to groundwater. Little is known about its environmental persistence. Data suggests it is not highly toxic and is not expected to bioaccumulate. It is not highly toxic to birds and is considered moderately toxic to fish.
Aziprotryne is a pesticide.
ChEBI: Aziprotryne is a member of 1,3,5-triazines.
Aziprotryne is synthesised as a derivative of the 1,3,5-triazine chemical family, specifically through the functionalisation of a triazine ring with azido, isopropylamino, and methylthio groups. The production involves the introduction of an azido group at the 2-position, an isopropylamino group at the 4-position, and a methylthio group at the 6-position of the triazine ring, resulting in the compound 2-azido-4-isopropylamino-6-methylthio-1,3,5-triazine.
Photosynthetic electron transport inhibitor, selective with residual activity, absorbed through roots and foliage
Moderately toxic by ingestion.When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumesof NOx and SOx.
