Uses and applications
What the substance is used for, by industry and function
Pre-emergence herbicide.
In combination (3:2) with chlorbufam, pre-emergence herbicidal control of annual weeds in onions, peas, beans, and spinach. Also used in forestry, on seed beds before planting out and on beds for transplanting vegetables (restricted use).
Use ... for pre-emergence weed control in ... spinach.
Cycluron is used in 3:2 mixture with chlorbufam as a pre-emergence herbicide @ 3-6 l 'alipur'/hectare for control of annual weeds in sugar beet and several vegetable crops.
Use classes: Pharmaceuticals.
How it is made
By reaction of cyclo-octylamine with dimethylcarbamoyl chloride
Dry hydrogen chloride is led into a solution of 127 parts of cyclooctylamine in 410 parts of dry dioxane at room temperature until the whole of the amine has been converted into the hydrochloride. Then dry phosgene is led into the solution kept at 90 °C until the color of the solution has changed to yellow-brown, which requires about 2 to 3 hr.

After distilling off about 100 parts of dioxane (whereby the excess of phosgene and hydrogen chloride are removed), dimethylamine is led into the solution of the cyclooctyl isocyanate formed at room temperature until it is saturated and the reaction mixture kept at 50 °C for 1 hr after the end of the introduction, it is then allowed to cool and the precipitated 1-cyclooctyl-3,3-dimethylurea is filtered off by suction, suspended in water and after repeated filtration by suction dried in a vacuum drying cabinet at 60 °C. If necessary the compound can be recrystallized from cyclohexane. 168 parts of 1-cyclooctyl-3,3-dimethylurea ... are obtained.
