4-Chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxyacetic acid (CAT: R014965) is the active hydrolysis product of compound 602, an auxin analog containing a masked amide bond. Upon hydrolysis, compound 602 releases 602 UC, which contributes to auxin-like activity in plants. This compound has been shown to effectively stimulate hypocotyl elongation in wild-type seedlings, making it a valuable tool in plant hormone signaling studies. As a synthetic auxin derivative, 602 UC supports research into auxin transport, growth regulation, and developmental processes, offering insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying plant morphogenesis and response to environmental stimuli.
