Description
Tribenuron methyl, also known as tribenuron-methyl, is a sulfonyl urea herbicide derivative. It is a colorless crystalline compound that is non-corrosive and soluble in water. Tribenuron methyl is a selective herbicide that inhibits the biosynthesis of branched amino acids in sensitive plants by competitively binding to the enzyme system which catalyzes the formation of these amino acids, the acetolactate synthase (ALS).
Uses
Used in Agricultural Industry:
Tribenuron methyl is used as a herbicide for the protection of crops such as corn, citrus, potatoes, tomatoes, rice, and vines. It is employed to control annual grasses and broadleaf weeds on barley, blueberries, oats, wheat, flax, and rape seed (canola). It is applied as a foliar spray and directly to the soil, as it is rapidly absorbed by the foliage and the roots, and is translocated throughout the plant to the growing points. The herbicide acts by inhibiting the synthesis of amino acids, specifically valine and isoleucine, which prevents cell division and cell growth. Selectivity occurs due to the differences in the metabolism of sulfonylureas between crops and weeds.
Registered for use in EU countries and the U.S., with maximum allowable residue levels set for various raw agricultural commodities, including barley, canola, cotton, flax, oat, and wheat. Tolerances with regional registration are established as per the regulations.

Metabolic pathway
The chemical structure of tribenuron methyl possesses
a mono-N-methyl group in the sulfonylurea linkage
which is a unique sulfonylurea herbicide and undergoes complex degradation reactions in the
environment. Tribenuron methyl degrades into many
degradation products, as indicated in the pathways by
photolytic and hydrolytic chemical reactions and by
biological degradations by mammal, plant, and soil. It
is interesting to note that photolysis in different
solvents yields diverse products depending on the
individual solvents.
Degradation
Methomyl (1) was hydrolysed under alkaline conditions at 25 °C (DT50
ca. 14 days) and was stable under neutral to acidic conditions [DT50 > 30
days at pH 5 and 7 (Friedman, 1983)l. Cleavage of the carbamate ester
bond is the primary degradation pathway, yielding S-methyl N-hydroxy-thioacetimidate
(2).
Irradiation of methomyl in dilute aqueous solution at 254 nrn yielded
acetonitrile (3), dimethyl disulfide, acetone, N-ethylidenethylamine and
carbon dioxide (Freeman and Ndip, 1984). Methomyl does not absorb
sunlight but underwent degradation to acetonitrile by indirect photolytic
reactions in/on soil surfaces (Swanson, 1986).
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 101200-48-0 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,0,1,2,0 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 4 and 8 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 101200-48:
(8*1)+(7*0)+(6*1)+(5*2)+(4*0)+(3*0)+(2*4)+(1*8)=40
40 % 10 = 0
So 101200-48-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Light-induced transformations of tribenuron-methyl in aqueous solution
Bhattacherjee,Dureja
, p. 183 - 188 (1999)
Tribenuron-methyl a sulfonylurea herbicide, readily photodegraded in aqueous solution under sunlight and UV light. The photoproducts identified were N-methyl-4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazine-2-amine, methyl 2- (aminosulfonyl) benzoate, o-benzoic sulfimide, N-(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5- triazin-2-yl)-N-methyl urea and N-(2-carbomethoxyphenyl)-N-(4-methoxy-6- methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N'-methyl urea. The rate of photodegradation of tribenuron-methyl in different types of water followed first-order kinetics with significant correlation coefficient, increased with increase in pH and was also dependent upon the dissolved impurities.
