Chemistry:Xyloxadine

From HandWiki

Xyloxadine, or dimenoxypyrin, is a pyridine herbicide which was never commercialised. It controls barnyard grass, foxtail and switch grass. PPDB reports it to be first mentioned in 2016,[1] however a Japanese study from 2014 explains a method for its synthesis.[2]

Chemically, xyloxadine technical grade is a racemate.[1] It is a derivative of acetyl chloride, sodium pyrithione and p-xylene.[3]
