Quinclorac is an organic compound with the formula {C9NH4Cl2CO2H. A colorless solid, it is soluble in hydrocarbons and alcohols. The compound is the carboxylic acid of 3,7-dichloroquinoline.

Applications

Quinclorac is an herbicide used primarily to control crabgrass.[1] It is found in some household herbicides for lawn use. Most[citation needed] lawn maintenance companies use the product for the control of annual grass weeds like crabgrass.

Quinclorac is a synthetic auxin.[2][3] Heap considers it to also have a cellulose herbicide action,[4] although some studies show quinclorac to have no cellulose action.[5]

Regulation and registration

Quinclorac is not approved to use in the European Union due to toxicity concerns.[6][7]

Resistance

Resistance to quinclorac is of concern in soybean cultivation. In rice, Graminaceous resistance is produced by the cytochrome enzyme CYP81A6.[8]
