Spiroxamine |
Chemical Name: IUPAC: 8-tert-butyl-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decan-2-ylmethyl(ethyl)(propyl)amine CAS: 8-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-N-ethyl-N-propyl-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane-2-methanamine Formula: C18H35NO2 Molecular Weight: 297.5 CAS No.: 118134-30-8 Structure: Description: Appearance: light brown oily liquid. Density/Specific gravity: 0.930g/ml Melting Point: <-170°C. Boiling point: decomposition above 120°C. Flash point: 147°C Vapour Pressure: 1.7×10-2 Pa (20°C) Stability: stable for 8 weeks at 54°C Stable for 52 weeks at 30°C Stable for 24 months at ambient temperatures Water solubility: PH 3: >200g/L (20°C) Isomer A: PH 7: 470mg/L PH 9: 14mg/L Isomer B: PH 7:340mg/L PH9: 10mg/L Solubility in organic solvents: >200g/l in common organic solvents. Flammability: not flammable Specification: 97%TC 250EC 500EC 800EC 75%WDG Uses: Control of powdery mildew in cereals (Erysiphe graminis), at 500-750 g/ha, and in grapes (Uncinula necator), at 400 g/ha. Also gives good control of rusts (Rhynchosporium and Pyrenophora teres), together with certain side-effects against Septoria diseases. Penetration studies have shown that tank mixes of spiroxamine and triazoles can positively influence the uptake of triazoles in plants. |
