Indoxaflufen is broad-spectrum and highly efficient and has great potential for future market development.

Indoxaflufen is a new alkylazine herbicide. The pure product appears as white to light brown powder. Indoxaflufen is a cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor (CBI). It affects the growth of plant meristems by inhibiting cell membrane synthesis, thereby achieving herbicidal effects. Indoxaflufen has a wide herbicidal spectrum, long duration of effect, and active ingredients. With the advantages of low dosage and high efficiency, it is the most effective CB1 herbicide currently found.

Indazinazinate was developed by the German company Bayer, and Bayer’s indazinate patent is still in the protection period. Indoxaflufen was approved for marketing in the United States in 2011. Up to now, indoxaflufen has been registered in Canada, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Malaysia, Vietnam and other regions, but it has not yet been registered in China. Indoxaflufen is broad-spectrum and highly effective, and can control more than 80 kinds of difficult-to-control weeds such as crabgrass, goosegrass, and bluegrass. It is suitable for cotton, sugar cane, grapes, citrus, lawns, golf courses, industrial vegetation, and ornamental plants. Plants and other cash crops and non-agricultural applications.

According to the “2022-2027 China Indazinazine Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that the current market of indoxaflufen is still in the early stage of commercial development, with annual sales of about 800 million yuan, and the United States is its main market. Indoxaflufen is broad-spectrum and efficient, can be used for resistance management, and has broad market development prospects. It is expected that the global indoxaflufen market will maintain an average annual compound growth rate of more than 4.0% from 2022 to 2027.

Indoxaflufen has good compounding properties and can be used in compounding with proposulfuron compound, penoxsulam, glyphosate, isoxaflufen, diquat, dicamba and other products. According to the compound Depending on the number of products, indoxaflufen compound can be divided into two-element compound, three-element compound, four-element compound and above. The use of indoxazone compound can not only reduce the dosage of herbicides and expand its weed control scope, but also bring new growth momentum to the indoxazone market.

Indoxachlor has many reaction steps and is difficult to prepare. Currently, the optimal synthesis route of indoxazone is divided into two major steps: indenylamine synthesis and triazine fragment synthesis, that is, the 1-aminoindenyl fragment is reacted with methylpropyl Indanone is synthesized from diethyl diacid and p-methylbenzyl bromide, and indenamine is separated by dynamic kinetics through asymmetric reaction; the synthesis of triazine fragment is based on biguanide, 2-fluoropropionic acid methyl ester, and indenamine in alkyl aluminum Under catalysis, indazinazine flufenate is directly synthesized.

Industry analysts said that indoxaflufen is a new alkylazine herbicide with a wide herbicidal spectrum and a long-lasting effect. It has the characteristics of long growth and excellent compounding properties, and is suitable for weed control in cotton, sugar cane, grapes and other crops. At present, the indoxachlor market is still in the early stages of development, and the market potential has not yet been fully tapped. In the future, as the types of compounding agents increase and market demand upgrades, the market development prospects of indoxazone are good.
