Selective pre-plant soil incorporated control of many annual grass and broad leaf weeds in cotton, soya beans, groundnuts, peas, beans, safflowers, sunflowers, carrots, turnips, fennel, chickory, and in transported tomatoes, capsicums, aubergines, and brassicas.

Herbicide, Not registered in US.

Use classes: Herbicides.

How it is made

Dinitramine is produced by reaction of 2-amino-3,5-dinitro-4-chlorotrifluorotoluene with diethylamine.

The 2,4-dihalo-3,5-dinitrobenzotrifluoride starting materials are readily prepared by nitration of the 2,4-dihalobenzotrifluoride with a mixture of fuming nitric and fuming sulfuric acids at a temperature below about 80 °C.
