Mesotrione is a selective triketone herbicide

PPO-IN-18 (Compound g13) is an inhibitor of protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) and effectively inhibits Echinochloa crus-galli PPO (EcPPO) with an IC50 of 0.109 μM. It demonstrates herbicidal activity against E. crus-galli, Digitaria sanguinalis, Setaria faberi, Ipomoea nil, Chenopodium quinoa, and Abutilon theophrasti, with no significant crop toxicity at application rates of 150-300 g ai ha.

Methyl orsellinate is a phytotoxic compound, it exhibits antifungal activity, it can cause significant inhibition of radicle growth of Amaranthus hypochondriacus and Echinochloa crus-galli, interact with bovine-brain calmodulin and inhibit the activation of the calmodulin-dependent enzyme cAMP phosphodiesterase. Methyl orsellinate can inhibit PTP1B activity with 50% inhibitory concentration values of 277 + - 8.6 microM, the selective inhibition of PTP1B has been widely recognized as a potential drug target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity, methyl orsellinate may can treat the type 2 diabetes and obesity.
