Haloxyfop-p-methyl

Haloxyfop-p-methyl (CAS 72619-32-0) is the R-enantiomer methyl ester form of haloxyfop. Also marketed as Gallant Super.

Where is Haloxyfop-p-methyl used?

• Soybean, canola, sunflower and sugar beet: formulated into emulsifiable concentrate herbicides applied post-emergence to eliminate annual and perennial grass weeds without damaging the broadleaf crop
• Selective post-emergent herbicide active ingredient controlling grassy weeds in broadleaf crops
• Absorbed through foliage and translocated systemically, disrupting fatty acid synthesis in target grass species
• Problem species such as volunteer cereals and wild oats are targeted as a primary active ingredient.

Good to know: Its single-enantiomer composition provides advantages compared to racemic haloxyfop, relevant to formulation economics and regulatory positioning.

Commercial specifications

• Purity specifications for technical-grade supply typically align with FAO/WHO pesticide specifications
