Description

Primisulfuron is a sulfonylurea herbicide that inhibits acetolactate synthase (ALS), an enzyme essential for the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids in plants. Its synthesis involves multiple steps, starting from 2-chloro-4-trifluoromethylpyrimidine. Primisulfuron is highly effective in controlling broadleaf weeds in various crops, including cereals, soybeans, and cotton. It is widely studied due to its selectivity, persistence in soil, and potential environmental impact. Studies on primisulfuron focus on its mode of action, efficacy, and potential for resistance development in weeds. It is also studied for its potential effects on non-target organisms and its fate in the environment.'
