Chemical Mechanisms & Reaction Pathways

Phenmedipham functions as a photosystem II electron transport inhibitor, disrupting photosynthetic electron flow by binding to the QB protein, leading to chlorophyll fluorescence and plant death through photosynthetic shutdown.

PSII Inhibition

Blocks photosystem II electron transport

Disrupts photosynthetic energy production
QB Protein Binding

Binds to quinone-binding protein

Prevents electron transfer
Chlorophyll Breakdown

Causes chlorophyll degradation and yellowing

Results in photosynthetic failure
Selective Activity

Provides selective weed control in sugar beets

Excellent crop safety
