DIMETHOMORPH
    烯酰吗啉
Introduction: Inhibits the formation of the oomycete fungal cell wall. Local systemic fungicide with good protectant and antisporulant activity. Only the (Z)- isomer is intrinsically active, but, because of rapid interconversion of isomers in the light, it has no advantage over the (E)- isomer in practice. Dimethomorph is a fungicide effective against various fungal pathogens including downy mildew, anthracnose, septoria leaf spot, late blight, root rot, crown rot, etc.in vines and other crops

Effect on earthworms: moderate toxicity to earthworms, acute 14 day LC50 for Eisenia foetida is >500 a.i.mg/kg.
ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Dimethomorph's production may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams; its use as a fungicide will result in its direct release to the environment. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 7.39×10-9 mm Hg at 25 deg C indicates dimethomorph will exist solely in the particulate phase in the atmosphere. Particulate-phase dimethomorph will be removed from the atmosphere by wet or dry deposition.Dimethomorph contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight. If released to soil, dimethomorph is expected to have no mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 5690. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.0×10-15 atm-cu m/mole. If released into water,dimethomorph is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the estimated Koc. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's estimated Henry's Law constant. An estimated BCF of 27 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Dimethomorph is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions. Occupational exposure to dimethomorph may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where dimethomorph is produced or used. (SRC)
