Dodine Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

White Solid

Uses

Dodine is used to control scab on apples, pears and pecans, leaf spot diseases of cherries, olives, blackcurrants, celery and other crops, and foliar diseases of strawberries. It is also used on other fruit, vegetable, nut and ornamental crops and shade trees.

Uses

Used as agricultural fungicide.

Definition

ChEBI: An acetate salt resulting from the reaction of equimolar amounts of 1-dodecylguanidine and acetic acid. It is used as a fungicide to control black spot and foliar diseases on apples, pears, peaches, nectarines and strawberries.

General Description

White crystalline solid. Used as a fungicide.

Air & Water Reactions

Soluble in hot water.

Reactivity Profile

Acidic organic/inorganic salts, such as Dodine, are generally soluble in water. The resulting solutions contain moderate to high concentrations of hydrogen ions and have pH's of less than 7.0. They react as acids to neutralize bases. These neutralizations generate heat, but less or far less than is generated by neutralization of inorganic acids, inorganic oxoacids, and carboxylic acid. They usually do not react as either oxidizing agents or reducing agents but such behavior is not impossible. Many of these compounds catalyze organic reactions.

Agricultural Uses

Fungicide, Microbiocide: Used to control black spot on apples, pears and pecans; brown rot and foliar diseases on peaches and nectarines, cherries, strawberries, black walnuts and sycamore trees. In industry, used as a biocide and preservative. May also be used to catalyze organic reactions.

Metabolic pathway

No information is available on the fate of dodine in soils but in plants it is converted into creatine by the action of a methyltransferase, and simultaneously the dodecyl moiety is oxidatively cleaved (PM).

Degradation

Dodine is stable in neutral and moderately alkaline or acidic media but the free base is liberated by concentrated alkali (PM).
