ActivityNapropamide is a selective systemic amide herbicide used to control a number of annual grasses and broad-leaved weeds. Napropamide is applied to soils where vegetables, fruit trees and bushes, vines, strawberries, sunflowers, tobacco, olives, and mint or other crops are grown. It is available in emulsifiable concentrate, wettable powder, granules, and suspension concentrates.

Environmental ProfileEcotoxicology:
Bees: LD50 0.121 mg/bee.Birds:In 7-d feeding trials, no-effect level for bobwhite quail >5600 mg/ kg.Daphnia: LC50 (48 h) 24 mg/l.Fish: LC50 (96 h) for bluegill sunfish 30, rainbow trout 16.6, goldfish >10 mg/l.
Environmental fate:
Animals:In mammals, following oral administration, napropamide is rapidly and extensively metabolised. The majority of the dose is excreted via urine and faeces. Similar effects have been observed in poultry.Soil: Koc 600 (range 470-1200). In aerobic laboratory soil, degradation is slow, DT50 446 d (30℃); however, in the field, typical DT50 is 25 d (range 9-131 d in N. America/GermaPlant:Rapidly metabolised via ring hydroxylation and N-dealkylation, followed by conjugation with sugars to produce water-soluble metabolites. -
