As environmental pressure increases, the 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole industry can seek support from the pharmaceutical field

​ ​ 3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole (Amitrole), also known as fenfossil, is a white crystalline powder non-selective herbicide with a molecular formula of C2H4N4. It is especially suitable for use as a cotton defoliant. In addition, because 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole has strong chelating properties, photosensitivity and biological activity, 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole can also be used as a photographic reagent, dispersion Dyes, resin curing agents, special biochemical reagents, etc. are also an organic synthesis intermediate.

Developed countries such as Europe and the United States have advanced technologies, while developing countries such as China and India are the main production areas of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole. With the tightening of environmental protection policies and the advancement of industry structural reforms, some heavily polluting and low-tech companies in my country’s 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole industry have withdrawn from the market, and the industry has gradually moved towards standardized and sustainable development. .

According to the“China 3-Amino-1,2,4-Triazole Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report 2023-2028” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that at present, the main enterprises in my country’s 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole industry include Foshan Daoqi Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Jingjiang Dongfang Chemical Co., Ltd., and Hubei Nona Technology Co., Ltd., etc. In the future, with the increasing environmental pressure on 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole companies and the emergence of alternative products, the output of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole products may further decrease. The market size may shrink and industry concentration is expected to further increase. With the innovation and development of production technology, my country’s competitiveness in the international 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole market will continue to increase.

Industrial researchers believe that in the future, as the country vigorously promotes “zero growth in pesticide use”, and the downstream organic synthesis field has concerns about safety and The demand for environmentally friendly intermediates continues to increase, and the overall consumption of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole in the fields of herbicides and organic synthesis is on a downward trend. However, because 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole is an intermediate in the synthesis of the coronary heart disease drug tripidil, which is a platelet-derived growth factor antagonist, it is mainly used clinically for angina pectoris and myocardial infarction. . In the future, as the aging of the country continues to increase, the number of domestic patients suffering from acute and chronic cardiac diseases may continue to increase. The demand for heart disease drugs such as tripidil will show a growth trend, and the demand for 3-amino-1, The 2,4-triazole industry plays a supporting role.
