ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
If released to air, a vapor pressure of 1.24×10-6 mm Hg at 25℃ indicates prometryne will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase prometryne will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically- produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 10 hours. Particulate-phase prometryne will be removed from the atmosphere by wet or dry deposition. Prometryne does contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight. If released to soil, prometryne is expected to have very high to slight mobility based upon a range of Kocs from 39.4 to 3,473. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.2×10-8 atm-cu m/mole. However, estimated half-lives for volatilization of prometryne from soil range from 41 to 60 days for shallow to deep placement and varying water evaporation rates. Half-lives for the biodegradation of prometryne in aerobic and anaerobic soil have been reported as 150 and 360 days, respectively. If released into water, prometryne is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon Koc values. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's estimated Henry's Law constant.
Usage: Prometryn was introduced by J. R. Geigy S.A. (now Syngenta AG). Prometryn is a selective herbicide which controls annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in cotton and celery.
Application: Biochemistry Photosynthetic electron transport inhibitor at the photosystem II receptor site. Also inhibits oxidative phosphorylation. Mode of action Selective systemic herbicide, absorbed by the leaves and roots, with translocation acropetally through the xylem from the roots and foliage, and accumulation in the apical meristems. Uses Used pre-emergence, at 0.8-2.5 kg/ha, in cotton, sunflowers, peanuts, potatoes, carrots, peas and beans; post-emergence, at 0.8-1.5 kg/ha, in cotton, potatoes, carrots, celery and leeks. Phytotoxicity Used as a directed spray on cotton while young, to avoid foliar injury.
