The discovery of the herbicidal properties of isopropyl N-phenylcarbamate (IPC) and isopropyl N-(3-chlorophenyl)carbamate (CIPC) and other organic chemicals has created an impetus in the development of new herbicides. Since the discovery of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), considerable effort has been devoted to the development of herbicides that are as effective and selective for the control of annual grasses as is 2,4-D for the control of many broad-leaved weeds.
