MemberDefinitionClass
4,5,6,7-tetrachlorophthalideA member of the class of 2-benzofurans that is 2-benzofuran-1(3H)-one in which all or the hydrogens attached to the benzene ring are replaced by chlorines. A fungicide used for the control of rice blast, it is not approved for use within the European Union.4,5,6,7-tetrachloro-2-benzofuran-1(3H)-one
5,4'-dihydroxy-7,3'-dimethoxyflavoneA dimethoxyflavone that is luteolin in which the hydroxy groups at positions 7 and 3' are replaced by methoxy groups.velutin
carpropamidA cyclopropylcarboxamide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 2,2-dichloro-1-ethyl-3-methylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid with the amino group of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)ethylamine. A rice fungicide with specific action against Pyricularia oryzae. It is not highly toxic to mammals but shows a moderate level of toxicity to birds, fish and earthworms.carpropamid
decaprenoic acidA polyunsaturated fatty acid that is octa-2,6-dienoic acid bearing two methyl substituents at positions 3 and 7 (the 2E-isomer).geranic acid
monobenzoneThe monobenzyl ether of hydroquinone. It is used as a topical drug for medical depigmentation.monobenzone
N(2)-([biphenyl]-4-ylsulfonyl)-N-hydroxy-N(2)-isopropoxy-D-valinamideA hydroxamic acid that is N-hydroxy-D-valinamide in which the alpha-amino group has been substituted by isopropoxy and [biphenyl]-4-ylsulfonyl groups. A selective matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) inhibitor, it is one of the most potent inducers of autophagy. Its physiological roles include angiogenesis, cancer metastasis, embryogenesis, tissue remodeling in development, and wound healing.N(2)-([biphenyl]-4-ylsulfonyl)-N-hydroxy-N(2)-isopropoxy-D-valinamide
theasinensin aA biflavonoid that is obtained by coupling of two molecules of (-)-epigallocatechin 3-gallate resulting in a bond between positions C-2 of the hydroxyphenyl ring. It is a natural product found in oolong tea.theasinensin A
tricyclazoleA triazolobenzothiazole that is [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3]benzothiazole which is substituted at position 5 by a methyl group. A fungicide used for the control of rice blast, it is not approved for use within the European Union.tricyclazole
