As an aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide, the application demand for clodinafop-propargyl is growing day by day.

Cycles are also known as cypressic acid. The chemical formula is C17H13CLFNO4, which is an organic matter. Propargyl appears as a light yellow solid powder with no special odor and is soluble in most organic solvents such as acetone, ethanol, chloroform, ether, and water at 20°C. Propargyl is widely used in the field of pesticides. It has the advantages of low temperature resistance, strong compoundability, and broad herbicidal spectrum. It is often used as a herbicide in wheat fields.

The synthesis process of clodinafop-propargyl includes two types: “one-pot cooking” process and five-step reaction synthesis process. The “one-pot cooking” process refers to using 2,3-difluoro-5-chloropyridine, 3-chloropropyne, and (R)-2-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)propionic acid as the main raw materials, which are mixed, dissolved, and stirred , filtration, cleaning and other processes to obtain finished products; the five-step reaction synthesis process uses propargyl alcohol, hydroquinone, 2,3-difluoro-5-chloropyridine, etc. as raw materials, and the finished product is obtained through five-step reactions. This method It has shortcomings such as low production efficiency and high production difficulty, and is not suitable for industrial production.

According to the “2023-2028 China Propargyl Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center, Propargyl is an aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide. Aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicides can effectively control grass weeds, including carboxypropyl, oxafopen, clodinafop, and cyhalofop-ethyl. In recent years, driven by market demand, the development of my country’s aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide industry has accelerated, and its market size will increase by nearly 10% year-on-year in 2022. Against this background, the prosperity of my country’s clodinafop-propargyl industry has further improved.

Cycles are excellent and can be used in low -temperature environments. Wheat, corn and other crops are its main needs. my country is the world’s largest wheat producer and consumer, and its output has maintained a long-term growth trend. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, my country’s wheat output will reach 137.723 million tons in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 0.6%. As a herbicide in wheat fields, clodinafop-ethyl has an excellent effect on removing wormwood and malignant weeds. It is expected that in the future, with the further growth of my country’s cereal planting area, the application demand for clodinafop-propargyl will become increasingly strong.

my country’s clodinafop-propargyl industry is highly concentrated, with leading companies occupying a dominant position in the market. Leer Chemical, Weixun Chemical, Zhongqi Co., Ltd., and Zhongxun Changqing are the main producers of clodinafop-propargyl in my country. Zhongqi Co., Ltd. is the world’s largest manufacturer of aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicides. It has large-scale production capabilities for clodinafop-propargyl and cyhalofop-ethyl and accounts for nearly 50% of my country’s clodinafop-propargyl market.

Industry analysts said that clodinafop, as a representative product of aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicides, has the characteristics of low temperature resistance, killing With its advantages such as wide grass spectrum, the market demand is growing day by day. my country is a large agricultural country with a huge cereal planting area, which provides favorable conditions for the development of the clodinafop-propargyl industry. In terms of market competition, my country’s clodinafop-propargyl industry is highly concentrated. Leading companies have large-scale production capabilities for high-quality products, and their output ranks among the world’s leaders.
