Chemistry:Cyclopyrimorate
From HandWiki
It was invented by Mitsui Chemicals Agro,[1] who sell it tradenamed "Cyra".[2] They discovered it by modifying the structures of other pyridazine herbicides, such as pyridafol and credazine.[1]
Cyclopyrimorate works by a novel target site, of homogentisate solanesyltransferase (HST). The new mechanism avoids resistance to acetolactate synthase inhibitor herbicides.[1] It symptomatically causes bleaching, similar to other cartenoid biosynthesis inhibitors like mesotrione and norflurazon, however cyclopyrimorate is the only one to inhibit HST.[3]
