Bromacil Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

Bromacil (CAS 314-40-9) belongs to a class of herbicides known as uracils, first developed by DuPont in 1962. Its herbicidal activity is due to inhibition of photosynthesis in several species of weeds and brush. Since its introduction in 1962, farmers in North and South America and Asia have used bromacil-containing herbicides for crop protection.

Chemical Properties

Bromacil is a noncombustible colorless, crystalline solid, which may be dissolved in a flammable liquid.

Uses

Bromacil is a nonselective inhibitor of photosynthesis, absorbed mainly through the root and used for general weed control on uncropped land at 5–15 kg/ha (2–4 kg/ha annual maintenance). It is also used for weed control in citrus plantations and for perennial grass control and annual pineapple plantations.

Definition

Substitute approved by EPA for some uses of 2,4,5-T.

General Description

Colorless to white odorless crystalline solid. Used as an herbicide. Commercially available as a wettable powder or in liquid formulations.

Reactivity Profile

Bromacil is incompatible with the following: Strong acids (decomposes slowly), oxidizers, heat, sparks, open flames .

Hazard

Possible carcinogen. Thyroid effects.

Agricultural Uses

Bromacil: Bromacil is used primarily for the control of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds, both nonselectively on noncrop lands and selectively for weed-control in citrus and pineapple crops. The top five applications in California for which this is used are oranges, lemons, grapefruit, and right-of-ways and landscapes. A limit of 0.1 mg/kg of agricultural products is set in several countries[35]. Not approved for use in EU countries.

Potential Exposure

Used for general weed or brush control in noncrop areas and primarily for the control of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds, both nonselectively on noncrop lands and selectively for weed-control in a few crops (citrus and pineapple). A limit of 0.1 mg/kg of agricultural products is set in several countries. Those exposed will be those involved in manufacture, formulation, and application.

Carcinogenicity

No evidence of carcinogenic potential was seen in rats or dogs fed up to 1250 ppm bromacil for 2 years. Bromacil was not oncogenic in rats fed 50, 250, or 2500 ppm for 2 years. A marginal increase in the incidence of hepatocellular neoplasms was seen in mice fed 5000 ppm (but not 250 or 1250 ppm) for 18 months.

Metabolic pathway

The microorganism, a Pseudomonas sp. isolated from soil by using bromacil as a sole source of carbon and energy, shows a potential to decontaminate soil samples fortified with bromacil under laboratory conditions. The degradation pathways of bromacil by the Pseudomonas sp. may include 5-bromouracil as an intermediate which leads to 5- bromodihydroxyluracil. Ozonization, UV photolysis, and sensitized sunlight photodegradation of aqueous bromacil solution lead to photodegradation products. The ozonization yields three main products which are identified as 3-sec-butyl-5-acetyl-5-hydroxyhydantoin, 3-sec-butylparabanic acid, and 3-sec-butyl-5,5- dibromo-6-hydroxyuracil. The main products of photoirradiation are 3-sec-butyl-6-methyluracil, its dimeric compound, and 3-sec-butyl-5-acetyl-5- hydroxyhydantoin.

Shipping

UN2811 Toxic solids, organic, n.o.s., Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1—Poisonous materials, Technical Name Required.

Incompatibilities

Incompatible with strong acids; oxidizers, heat. Decomposes slowly in strong acids.

Waste Disposal

Bromacil should be incinerated in a unit operating @ 850° C equipped with gas scrubbing equipment
