Product Chemistr~ - Linuron is the active ingredient of a herbicide which is conunercially available under several trade names, such as: Afalon (Hoechst) Hoe-2810 (Hoechst) Herbicide-326 (du·Pont) Lorox (duPont) Linuron is a substituted urea herbicide, the molecular fonnula, chemical nomenclature and structural formula are depicted below. Molecular formula CgH 10 ci 2N2o2 Chemical Nomenclature 3-(3J4-dichlorophenyl) -1-methoxY-l-methYl - urea H ./ OCH 3 Cl N- C- N Structural formula -@- Cl / I CH b '-.. 3 Substituted urea herbicides are generally synthesized by four different routes: (1) Reaction of isocyanate with at-nines, (2) Reaction of carbamic acid chlorides with amines, (3) Reaction of carbamic acid phenyl esters with amine, and (4) Transamination of ureas with amines. These synthetic routes are depicted below, where R1 , R2 are alkyl or phenyl groups. -2- H H / (1) - C= 0 + R2-NH.L0 ~ R1-N-C-N 0" \ R2 H H H (2) R -N-c-Cl + RL~-NH ~ R -N-c-N-R0 + HCl 1 II 2 1 ll . ~ 0 0 H H H (3) R 1 -N:.:~-o- 0 + R2-NH 2 ---?>- R 1 -N-~-NR2 + 0 -OH 0 0 H H /H (4) R -N-~-NH 2 + R2 i~H 2 ~ R 1 -N-~-N, + .

Description of Manufacturing Process a. Raw Material: The starting materials and their sources for manufacturing "B" Technical Linuron are summarized below: Chemicals Sources (1) 3,4-dichlorophenylisocyanate Bayer (West Germany) (2) Hydroxylammonium sulfate BASF · (West Germany) (3) Dimethylsulfate Hoechst (West Germany) (4) Methanol Many sources b. Step by Step Description of Manufacturing Process: (1) Dissolve 82 parts hydroxylamine sulfate in 300 parts water by adding 100 parts solution of 40% strength sodium hydroxide -4- (2) To the aqueous solution of hydroxylamine formed in the above step, a toluene solution of 3,4-dichlorophenylisocyanate (188 parts in 400 parts) is added with good stirring and external cooling. (3) After completion of the addition, the mixture is stirred at 25°-30°C for 1 hour. The pre cipitate of 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)~l-hydroxy- urea is filtered and washed with water and dried. (4) 400 parts methanol are added to the dried 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-hydroxyurea with stirring. Subsequently, 190 parts dimethyl- sulfate are also added. (5) 320 parts of 25% sodium hydroxide solution is slowly added to the reaction mixture. The re- action vessel is maintained at temperature between 10 to 20°C with external cooling. (6) The mixture is stirred for 1/2 hour, then 400 parts water are added to precipitate Linuron (3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-methoxy-1- methylurea). (7) Linuron is filtered, washed and dried. c. Discussion of Impurity Fomation: Since 3,4-dichlorophenyl hydroxyurea is the intemediate -5- material in the manufacturing of Linuron, small parts of 3,4-dichlorophenyl hydroxyurea remains in the Technical Linuron product as impurity. Two major impurities are formed, however, in the methylation process of the reaction inter- mediate, 0,4-dichlorophenyl hydroxyurea). 3-(3,4-dichloro- phenyl) methoxyurea is resulted from incomplete methylation, while bis-(3,4-dichlorophenyl) urea is formed when two mole cules of 3,4-dichlorophenyl hydroxyurea react. 3. Analytical Methods and Data Five samples of Technical Linuron were provided by the Griffin Corporation, and were analyzed for Linuron and im- purities. Technical Linuron samples were dissolved in Methanol and analyzed with the following four analytical methods. a.
