Oxycarboxin
(5,6-dihydro-2-methyl-N-phenyl-1,4-oxathiin-3-carboxamide-4,4-dioxide)
is a member of the oxathiin class of systemic fungicides.
-
Oxycarboxin is an off-white, crystalline compound
with a melting point of 127.5-130-C.
-
Some of the other names are
Carboxin sulfone , DCMOO , Oxicarboxina , Oxikarboxin ,
Oxycarboxin , Oxycarboxin , Oxycarboxin (DCMCD) , oxycarboxine ,
Plantvax.
-
Used for the control of rust diseases on ornamentals,
cereals and nursery trees.It
is
also used to control fairy rings on turf.
-
It is the first systemic fungicides were released to
Australian horticulture in the early 1970s.
-
Also known as
5,6-dihydro-2-methyl-1,4-oxathiin-3-carboxanilide-4,4-dioxide.
-
Products such as Benlate (benomyl) and Plantvax
(oxycarboxin) offered new standards of control for diseases such as
grey mould, powdery mildews and rusts.
-
The mode of action of these systemic fungicides
differed from that of older protectant fungicides.
-
They had selective toxic activity effective against
certain life processes in the fungi.
-
At normal rates of application they had no
deleterious effect on plant tissue.
-
This type of activity has been called `systemic', `eradicant'
or `kick-back' since it stops the progress of established
infections.
-
Oxycarboxin is believed not to
persist on plants post-application; there is little likelihood of
sustained potential exposure.
-
Very limited residential
exposure to oxycarboxin may be possible if treated ornamentals are
obtained from an enclosed commercial structure such as a nursery or
greenhouse and then brought back to a residence.
-
Oxycarboxin was first
registered as an active ingredient in the United States (US) in 1971
for control of rust on carnations.
