ChEBI: Methoprotryne is a member of 1,3,5-triazines.
Methoprotyne is commercially synthesised through esterification of methoxy-substituted dodecadienoic acid with isopropanol. In industrial production, methoprotyne is derived from a multi-step organic synthesis starting with long-chain unsaturated alcohols and acids. The key reaction involves forming the active compound.
Selective, absorbed through roots and foliage and translocated. Photosynthetic electron transport inhibitor at the photosystem II receptor site.
