Crystal structure of the enol form of mesotrione: a benzoylcyclohexanedione herbicide
نویسندگان
چکیده
The title compound [systematic name: 3-hy-droxy-2-(4-methyl-sulfonyl-2-nitro-benzo-yl)cyclo-hex-2-enone], C14H13NO7S, is the enol form of a benzoyl-cyclo-hexa-nedione herbicide. As a result of this tautomerization, there is intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond enclosing an S(6) ring motif. The cyclo-hexene ring has an envelope conformation, with the central CH2 C atom as the flap. Its mean plane is inclined to the benzene ring by 87.46 (8)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by a series of C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework.

Synergistic Effects of Atrazine and Mesotrione on Susceptible and Resistant Wild Radish (Raphanus raphanistrum) Populations and the Potential for Overcoming Resistance to Triazine Herbicides
The synergistic interaction between mesotrione, a hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)-inhibiting herbicide, and atrazine, a photosystem II (PS II)-inhibiting herbicide, has been identified in the control of several weed species. A series of dose–response studies examined the synergistic effect of these herbicides on a susceptible (S) wild radish population. The potential for this interacti...
متن کاملMechanism of resistance to mesotrione in an Amaranthus tuberculatus population from Nebraska, USA
Amaranthus tuberculatus is a troublesome weed in corn and soybean production systems in Midwestern USA, due in part to its ability to evolve multiple resistance to key herbicides including 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). Here we have investigated the mechanism of resistance to mesotrione, an important chemical for managing broadleaf weeds in corn, in a multiple herbicide resistant p...

Molecular structure, isomerism, conformational stability and intramolecular hydrogen bonding (IHB) of cis-enol forms of 1-(n-pyridyl)butane-1,3-diones (nPBD) (n = 2, 3, or 4) have been investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Energy differences for all possible nPBD cis-enol forms of isomers with respect to the most stable form of the correspondin...

متن کاملIsolation of mesotrione-degrading bacteria from aquatic environments in Brazil.
Mesotrione is a benzoylcyclohexane-1,3-dione herbicide that inhibits 4-hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase in target plants. Although it has been used since 2000, only a limited number of degrading microorganisms have been reported. Mesotrione-degrading bacteria were selected among strains isolated from Brazilian aquatic environments, located near corn fields treated with this herbicide. Pantoea...
