Chlorfluren is a synthetic organic compound that primarily functions as a selective herbicide, targeting and inhibiting the growth of unwanted plants. Its mechanism of action involves interfering with photosynthesis by inhibiting the electron transport chain in plant cells, leading to the disruption of energy production and eventual plant death. Chlorfluren is used in agricultural settings to control weed growth, particularly in crops where selective weed management is required.
