The molecule is a cyclopropylcarboxamide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 2,2-dichloro-1-ethyl-3-methylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid with the amino group of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)ethylamine. A rice fungicide with specific action against Pyricularia oryzae. It is not highly toxic to mammals but shows a moderate level of toxicity to birds, fish and earthworms. It has a role as an EC 4.2.1.94 (scytalone dehydratase) inhibitor, a xenobiotic, a melanin synthesis inhibitor and an antifungal agrochemical. It is a cyclopropylcarboxamide, a member of monochlorobenzenes and an amide fungicide.
