Chemical Mechanisms & Reaction Pathways

Oxyfluorfen functions as a protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) inhibitor, disrupting chlorophyll biosynthesis and causing protoporphyrin IX accumulation, leading to lipid peroxidation and rapid plant death under light exposure.

PPO Inhibition

Blocks protoporphyrinogen oxidase enzyme

Disrupts chlorophyll biosynthesis pathway
Protoporphyrin Accumulation

Causes toxic protoporphyrin IX buildup

Creates photosensitizing compounds
Lipid Peroxidation

Induces membrane destruction under light

Causes rapid cell death
Contact Activity

Provides rapid knockdown effect

Excellent pre and post-emergence control
