1,3-DIPHENYLUREA is an amide. Amides/imides react with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed by the reaction of organic amides/imides with strong reducing agents. Amides are very weak bases (weaker than water). Imides are less basic yet and in fact react with strong bases to form salts. That is, they can react as acids. Mixing amides with dehydrating agents such as P2O5 or SOCl2 generates the corresponding nitrile. The combustion of these compounds generates mixed oxides of nitrogen (NOx).
TOBACCO CALLUS PROPAGATED ON MINERAL MEDIUM CONTAINING N,N'-DIPHENYLUREA LABELED IN UREYLENE CARBON, AS SOURCE OF CYTOKININ. METABOLITE IDENTIFIED AS O-BETA-D-GLUCOSIDE IS APPROX 125 TIMES LESS ACTIVE THAN PARENT COMPD IN PROMOTING TOBACCO CELL DIVISION.

N,N'-DIPHENYLUREA USED AS THE SOURCE OF CYTOKININ FOR CYTOKININ-DEPENDENT TOBACCO CALLUS WAS FOUND TO CONTAIN 3 CYTOKININ-ACTIVE RIBONUCLEOSIDES. HOWEVER, NO EVIDENCE WAS FOUND TO ASSOCIATE THE MODE OF ACTION OF THE NON-PURINE CYTOKININ, N,N'-DIPHENYLUREA WITH TRNA.
IT PROMOTED CALLUS GROWTH AT HIGH CONCN, ALTHOUGH GROWTH OF MOST OF CALLUS TISSUES WAS IRREGULAR.
MIXT OF N,N'-DIPHENYLUREA (PDU), GIBBERELLIC & 2-NAPHTHOXYACETIC ACIDS TESTED. MIXT OF LATTER 2 INCR SET & FINAL YIELD & ADDN OF DPU DID NOT IMPROVE THE RESULT.
Description1,3-Diphenylurea is a cytokinin.1,2 It increases fresh weight of tobacco plant tissue when used at concentrations ranging from 1 to 16 mg/L in growth media.1 1,3-Diphenylurea (32 and 100 µM) increases the growth of cultured P. lunatus callus tissue.2 Exogenous 1,3-diphenylurea (32 and 100 µM) added during first-passage culture induces second-passage cytokinin autonomy in cultured P. lunatus tissue.WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.

EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.
SMALL SPILLS AND LEAKAGE: If a spill of this chemical occurs, FIRST REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION, then you should dampen the solid spill material with acetone and transfer the dampened material to a suitable container. Use absorbent paper dampened with acetone to pick up any remaining material. Seal your contaminated clothing and the absorbent paper in a vapor-tight plastic bag for eventual disposal. Solvent wash all contaminated surfaces with acetone followed by washing with a soap and water solution. Do not reenter the contaminated area until the Safety Officer (or other responsible person) has verified that the area has been properly cleaned.
RECOMMENDED RESPIRATOR: Where the neat test chemical is weighed and diluted, wear a NIOSH-approved half face respirator equipped with an organic vapor/acid gas cartridge (specific for organic vapors, HCl, acid gas and SO2) with a dust/mist filter. (NTP, 1992)
Uses1,3-Diphenylurea is mainly used as an intermediate for the drug sulfanilamide, and its chlorosulfonated product can be used as the main raw material for sulfamethoxazole.
General Description1,3-Diphenylurea is a cytokinin compound present in fruit and vegetables.
DefinitionChEBI: 1,3-diphenylurea is a member of the class of phenylureas that is urea in which one of the hydrogens of each amino group is replaced by a phenyl group. It is present in coconut milk (Cocos nucifera). It has a role as a plant metabolite and a cytokinin.
