Extract

Halogenoalkylcarboxylic acids such as monochlorocetic acid, trichloroacetic acid, dichloropropionic acid and 2,3–dichloroisobutyric acid, have well known herbicidal activities upon monocot plants. However, they are not effective in killing the seeds of weeds. This may be due to their inability to penetrate the seed coats.
