This invention provides as new compositions of matter 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4,5-T) and (2-2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy) propionic acid (Silvex) including the hydrolyzable salts, aliphatic esters and amides of these acids, which compositions are free of chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins.

Trichlorophenoxy alkanoic acid free of chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins

Trichlorophenoxy alkanoic acid including hydrolyzable salts, aliphatic esters and amides thereof said compounds being free of chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins are prepared by liquid phase alkaline condensation of 3-chlorophenol or 3,4-dichlorophenol with an alpha halo alkanoic acid, ester or amide followed by liquid phase chlorination of the condensation product.

Process for preparing trichlorophenoxy alkanoic acid and hydrolyzable

This invention discloses a method of increasing the recoverable sugar in sugar cane which comprises contacting the sugar cane with an effective amount of furfuryl 2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoate during a late stage of development of the cane.
