Description

Monodesmethyl Isoproturon is a key metabolite and degradation product of the widely used phenylurea herbicide isoproturon. This compound is of significant interest for environmental monitoring, analytical research, and regulatory compliance in the agrochemical sector. It serves as a critical reference standard and intermediate for laboratories, research institutions, and chemical manufacturers focused on pesticide residue analysis, environmental fate studies, and metabolite synthesis.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Primary use as a certified standard for the quantification and identification of isoproturon and its metabolites in environmental samples (water, soil) and agricultural products via HPLC, LC-MS, or GC-MS.
• Environmental Fate and Metabolism Studies: Essential for researching the degradation pathways, persistence, and ecotoxicological profile of isoproturon in ecosystems.
• Metabolite Synthesis: Used as a building block or precursor in the synthesis of other isoproturon metabolites for comprehensive toxicological and environmental studies.
• Regulatory Compliance and Testing: Supports laboratories in meeting regulatory requirements for pesticide residue analysis set by agencies like the EPA, EFSA, and others globally.
• Quality Control in Agrochemical Manufacturing: Employed to monitor and control the quality of isoproturon production and to assess impurity profiles.
