“…At the same time, it seemed of particular interest to have a trifluoromethyl group in the ring, which has often been found to impart unique biological activity. 15 Arylpyrroles having general formula I ( Fig 5) are new members in the class of activated, membrane-disrupting herbicides. When assayed in vitro they caused formation of ethane, decrease in chlorophyll level, growth inhibition, and inhibition of protox similar to the effects obtained with the reference peroxidizing herbicides.…”

Protox inhibitors are applied as foliar sprays, thus causing very rapid cellular collapse and desiccation of many troublesome weeds in the presence of light. In many respects, they appear to be ideal herbicides, because they act rapidly and do not harm mammals under normal conditions. The main limitation to their widespread adoption is that few crops are naturally resistant to them. Crop tolerance has mainly been pursued with the synthesis of the cyclic imide classes containing 5- and 6-membered heterocycles, including pyrazole, pyridazine, 1,2,4-triazine, triazolinone and trifluoromethyluracil derivatives. Because of their structural novelties and biological performance, active investigations on heterocyclic protox inhibitors have been carried out in our laboratories and we have found 3-arylpyrroles to be a new class of light-activated, membrane-disrupting herbicides. They are active on both grass and broadleaf weeds at low rates. The synthesis and structure-activity relationships are presented.

“…In in dividuals of European origin, Weitkamp et al [7,8], using starch gel electrophoresis in three buffer systems, have recognized 7 variants: 2 fast-moving variants, albumin Gent [9] and albumin Reading [6], and 5 slow variants, albumin B [1], Pollibauer [8], Gainesville [3], Roma [4,5,8] and SO/BS [4,5,8]. In populations of Italian origin, Porta et al [4,5] have observed some of these variants (Gent, Reading, B, Roma and SO/BS) and 3 new variants which were observed only in this popula tion: CN/BL, Ml/MI slow and GE/CT types.…”
