Famoxadone
恶唑菌酮
Introduction: Famoxadone belongs to the oxazolidinedione class of chemicals and is highly active against spore germination and mycelial growth of sensitive fungi. The biochemical mechanism of action of famoxadone is inhibition of the fungal mitochondrial respiratory chain at Complex III, resulting in a decreased production of ATP by the fungal cell. Famoxadone is a fungicide to protect agricultural products against various fungal diseases on fruiting vegetables, tomatoes, potatoes, curcurbits, lettuce and grapes. It is used in combination with cymoxanil.

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Animals Following oral application to rats, elimination is rapid. Unmetabolised famoxadone was the major component in the faeces; mono- (at 4'-phenoxyphenyl) and di- (also at 4-phenylamino) hydroxylated famoxadone were the primary faecal metabolites. In urine, products arising from cleavage of the heterocyclic ring were found. In goats and hens, there was little residue in the tissues; the majority of the administered famoxadone (c. 60%) was unmetabolised and recovered in the faeces. Metabolism was complex, involving hydroxylation, cleavage of the oxazolidinedione- aminophenyl linkage, cleavage of the phenoxyphenyl ether linkage and opening of the oxazolidinedione ring. Plants In grapes, tomatoes and potatoes, famoxadone was the main residue; no residues were found in potato tubers. In wheat, famoxadone was more extensively metabolised, primarily by hydroxylation, followed by conjugation. Soil/Environment In laboratory soil, DT50 6 d (aerobic, 20℃, 40-50% MWHC, pH 5.3-8.0, 1.1-2.9% o.m.), 28 d (anaerobic, 20℃, pH 7.2, 1.4% o.m.). Degradation routes include hydroxylation (at the 4'-phenoxyphenyl position), ring opening (with formation of a glycolic acid derivative), and is primarily microbial; it is accelerated by light.
Usage: Famoxadone was developed by DuPont. It is a fungicide used to control a broad spectrum of plant pathogenic fungi including downy mildew and blights.
Application: Biochemistry Inhibits mitochondrial electron transport, by blocking ubiquinol:cytochrome c oxidoreductase at complex III. Activity resides mainly in the (S)- isomer. Mode of action Protectant and residual fungicide. Acts mainly by inhibiting spore germination. Uses Control of a broad spectrum of plant pathogenic fungi, at 50-200 g/ha. Particularly effective against grape downy mildew, potato and tomato late and early blights, downy mildew of cucurbits, wheat leaf and glume blotch, and barley net blotch.
