Applications
Uses6-Methoxybenzoxazolinone is an intermdiate in the synthesis of DIMBOA-4-O-β-D-glucuronide which is a metabolite of DIMBOA which acts as an antifungal and antialgal agent in crops. The benzoxazinone group within the structure allows for these effects.
General Description6-Methoxy-2-benzoxazolinone (MBOA) is obtained by reacting 2-amino-5-methoxyphenol hydrochloride with urea. MOBA is a naturally occurring auxin-inhibiting substance present in maize shoots.
