Triclopyr Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Properties White to Off-White Solid
Uses Selective postemergence herbicide to control many woody and broad-leaved weeds.
Uses Triclopyr is a selective post-emergence herbicide.
Definition ChEBI: A monocarboxylic acid that is (pyridin-2-yloxy)acetic acid substituted by chloro groups at positions 3, 5 and 6. It is an agrochemical used as a herbicide.
Agricultural Uses Herbicide: Triclopry is a systemic herbicide used on rice, range land and pasture, rights-of-way, forestry and grasslands, including home lawns, for control of broadleaf weeds and woody plants. Triclopry is usually available as a triclopyr butoxyethyl ester (BEE) or as a triclopry triethylamine salt (TEA). Registered for use in the U.S. Some products may be classified as Restricted Use Pesticides (RUP). Registered for use in EU countries . U.S. Maximum Allowable Residue Levels for Triclopyr and its metabolites 3,5,6,-trichloro-2-pyridinol and 2-methoxy-3,5,6-trichloropyridine [40 CFR 180.417 (a)(1)]: for the combined residues of the herbicide in or on the following raw agricultural commodities: fish 3.0 ppm; grass, forage 500 ppm; grass, forage, hay 500 ppm;shellfish3.5 ppm.[40 CFR 180.417 (a)(2)]: in or on the following agricultural commodities: egg 0.05 ppm; meat, fat, and meat byproducts, except kidney and liver, of cattle, goat, hog, horse and sheep 0.05 ppm; meat, fat, and meat byproducts, except kidney, of poultry 0.1 ppm; milk 0.01 ppm; liver and kidney of cattle, goat, hog, horse and sheep 0.5 ppm; rice, grain 0.3 ppm; rice, straw10.0 ppm.

Environmental Fate Soil. In soil, triclopyr degraded to 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol and 2-methoxy-3,5,6- trichloropyridine (Norris et al., 1987). The major route of dissipation from soil is likely due to microbial degradation (Newton et al., 1990).
Fifty-four days after triclopyr was applied to soil at a rate of 5.6 kg/ha, the majority (65%) remained in the top 10 cm of soil (Lee et al., 1986a).
Ashton and Monaco (1991) reported triclopyr had an average half-life of 46 days and is in uenced by soil type and climatic conditions.
Plant. Lewer and Owen (1989) found 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol as the major metab- olite in plants. Cultured soybean cells metabolized triclopyr to dimethyl triclopyr-aspartate and dimethyl triclopyr-glutamate which can be rehydrolyzed to form the parent compound.
At an application rate of 3.4 kg/ha, the dissipation half-life was 3.7 days. At an application rate of 3.3 kg/ka, the dissipation half-lives of triclopyr in brown, browse and litter samples were 73.5, 202.3 and 31 days, respectively (Norris et al., 1987).
Metabolic pathway After 7 days in a soybean cell suspension culture, the major metabolites of trichlopyr are formed and identified as the aspartate (major) and glutamate (minor) amide conjugates.
