Flumioxazin, a protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO; EC 1.3.3.4) inhibitor, has been used in soybean, cotton, grapes, and many other crops to control broad leaf weeds. Unfortunately, it can cause damage to cotton. To ameliorate phytotoxicity of flumioxazin to cotton, this work assessed the protective effects of diazabicyclo derivatives as potential safeners in cotton. A bioactivity assay proved that the phytotoxicity of flumioxazin on cotton was alleviated by some of the compounds. In particular, the activity of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) was significantly enhanced by Compound 32, which showed good safening activity against flumioxazin injury. The physicochemical properties and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) predictions proved that the pharmacokinetic properties of Compound 32 are similar to those of the commercial safener BAS 145138. The present work demonstrated that diazabicyclo derivatives are potentially efficacious as herbicide safeners, meriting further investigation. |
