What is Thiobencarb?

Chemical properties

Amber-colored, slightly water-soluble, liquid.

The Uses of Thiobencarb

Thiocarbamate herbicide used to control sedges and grasses in rice paddies.

What are the applications of Application

Benthiocarb is a thiocarbamate cholinesterase inhibitor used as a herbicide

Definition

ChEBI: Thiobencarb is a member of monochlorobenzenes and a monothiocarbamic ester.

General Description

Pale yellow to brownish yellow liquid. Non corrosive. Used as an herbicide.

Air & Water Reactions

Thio and dithiocarbamates slowly decompose in aqueous solution to form carbon disulfide and methylamine or other amines. Such decompositions are accelerated by acids.

Reactivity Profile

Thiobencarb is a thiocarbamate. Flammable gases are generated by the combination of thiocarbamates and dithiocarbamates with aldehydes, nitrides, and hydrides. Thiocarbamates and dithiocarbamates are incompatible with acids, peroxides, and acid halides.

Hazard

Toxic.
