Abstract
This chapter begins by discussing Amidosulfuron, a post-emergent herbicide, which controls broadleaf weeds in cereal and other crops. The hydrolysis of 14C-amidosulfuron in buffer aqueous solutions under various conditions results in 2-amino-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine as the major hydrolyzed product. Bensulfuron methyl is a selective herbicide and controls most annual and perennial broadleaf weeds for use in transplanted and direct-seeded rice fields. Chlorimuron ethyl is a broad-spectrum herbicide for pre-emergent, pre-plant incorporated and post-emergent use in soybean. Chlorsulfuron, a herbicide, controis a wide range of broadleaf weeds and some grasses, and is used for some cereals. Metsulfuron methyl is a herbicide with control of broadleaf weeds, used for wheat, oat, barley, and some other crops. Nicosulfuron is a selective systematic herbicide. It controls broadleaf weeds and annual and perennial grass in maize. Prosulfuron, Rimsulfuron, Sulformeturon methyl, Thifensulfuron methyl, Triasulfuron, Triburon methyl are the other compounds that are discussed.
