Description
2,4-D-d5 (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid-d5) is the deuterium labeled 2,4-D (HY-18572)[1]. 2,4-D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) is a selective systemic herbicide for the control of broad-leaved weeds. 2,4-D acts as a plant hormone, causing uncontrolled growth in the meristematic tissues. 2,4-D inhibits DNA and protein synthesis and thereby prevents normal plant growth and development[2]
