Description

solid with an unpleasant odourChEBI: A dicarboxylic acid monoamide which results from addition of one equivalent of 1-naphthylamine to phthalic anhydride.


Naptalam is a dicarboxylic acid monoamide which results from addition of one equivalent of 1-naphthylamine to phthalic anhydride. It has a role as a herbicide. It is a dicarboxylic acid monoamide, a carboxylic acid and a N-(1-naphthyl)carboxamide. It is a conjugate acid of a naptalamate.

Toxicity

In the greenhouse, naptalamat 1.1 to 4.5 kg ai/ha antagonized activity of paraquat at 0.04 to 0.14 kg ai/ha in 14 of 16 rate combinations when applied to sicklepod. Sicklepod shoot fresh weight reduction was less compared to that obtained with paraquat alone when paraquat at 0.04 kg/ha was mixed with bentazon at 0.42 to 0.84 kg ai/ha or monocarbamide dihydrogensulfate at 14 to 58 kg ai/ha. Paraquat activity on Florida beggarweed was antagonized by mixtures of paraquat at 0.04 to 0.14 kg/ha with naptalam at 3.4 or 4.5 kg/ha.|Laboratory studies demonstrated that naptalam safens cucumber against the phytotoxic effects of chloramben. In petri dish studies, cucumber seedlings grown from seeds exposed to chloramben plus naptalam had greater shoot growth, root growth, and dry weight than seedlings grown from seeds exposed to chloramben alone. Naptalam also partially reversed the reduction in dry weight of various plant parts caused by exposure of roots of hydroponically grown seedlings to chloramben. More radioactivity from root-applied (14)C chloramben remained in cucumber roots and less was translocated to shoots wih a (14)C chloramben plus naptalam treatment than with a (14)C chloramben alone treatment. Naptalam appeared to influence chloramben metabolism. In various plant parts, concn of chloramben and its metabolites differed between the two treatments.

FOR 8-10 LB NAPTALAM/ACRE, A STEADY STATE BETWEEN THE PERSISTENCE & BREAKDOWN OF NAPTALAM WAS REACHED AFTER 2 YEARS.

There are three primary classes: auxins, cytokinins, and gibberellins. (See all compounds classified as Plant Growth Regulators.)

... Naptalam may act by affecting the transport of auxin within the plant.|2-(p-Carbethoxyphenyl)-1,3(2H,4H)-isoquinolinedione, an experimental herbicide, caused effects on geotropism, which are often indicative of an effect on auxin transport, in a whole plant herbicidal screen. However, it showed little or no activity in an in vitro binding assay in corn coleoptiles for the auxin transport inhibitor, N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid. Other active isoquinolinedione analogues of this compound did, however, exhibit significant in vitro activity. Direct measurements of auxin transport in corn coleoptiles were undertaken in an attempt to resolve the apparent discrepancy between herbicidal and binding activities. In all cases examined, compounds that were highly active on whole plants were good inhibitors of auxin transport, and compounds that were weak as herbicides showed little or no effect on auxin transport. Therefore, it is concluded that the mode of action of these isoquinolinedione herbicides is the inhibition of auxin transport. Ring-opened analogues of several isoquinolinediones were synthesized and assayed in both the transport and binding assays, in order to test whether compounds in this class express their herbicidal activity by undergoing ring-opening in vivo, yielding products that are more straightforward analogues of N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid with free carboxyl groups. The homophthalamic acids had little or no activity in both assays. On the other hand, the p-ethyl- and p-ethoxy-phenyl phthalamic acids showed auxin transport inhibition comparable to the parent isoquinolinediones, but with markedly increased binding activity. These results support the possible role of ring-opening in the generation of biological activity. However, the p-carbethoxyphenyl phthalamic acid, analogous to 2-(p-carbethoxyphenyl)-1,3(2H,4H)-isoquinolinedione, was very weak in both assays. Thus, ring-opening in vivo cannot alone account for the biological activity of this class of compounds.
