Description

Strobilurin C is a natural fungicidal compound belonging to the β-methoxyacrylate class, serving as the foundational chemical scaffold for a major group of modern agricultural fungicides. Its significance lies in its unique mode of action, which inhibits mitochondrial respiration in fungi by binding to the Qo site of cytochrome bc1 complex, offering a powerful tool against resistant pathogens. This makes it a critical intermediate and reference standard for agrochemical R&D, formulation development, and analytical laboratories globally.

Application

• Agrochemical Research & Development: As a lead compound for synthesizing and optimizing novel strobilurin-class fungicides (e.g., azoxystrobin, trifloxystrobin, pyraclostrobin).
• Analytical Standard: Used as a high-purity reference standard in HPLC, LC-MS, and NMR for method development, quality control, and regulatory testing of commercial fungicide products.
• Biochemical Studies: Employed in mode-of-action research to study fungal respiration inhibition and investigate resistance mechanisms in plant pathogens.
• Formulation Development: Serves as a key intermediate in the pilot-scale production and testing of new fungicidal formulations.
