The in vivo effects of other thiocarbamate herbicides at 8 mg/kg on ALDH activity and 40 mg/kg on acetaldehyde levels decrease in the order of thiobencarb, pebulate, vernolate and molinate > butylate and triallate >> cycloate.

Representative herbicides studied were n-propyl, n-propylthiocarbamate ethyl ester (EPTC), molinate, vernolate, ethiolate and butylate.

Eight S-alkyl and S-(chloroallyl) thiocarbamate herbicides (EPTC, molinate, butylate, vernolate, pebulate, diallate, sulfallate, and triallate), but not their S-chlorobenzyl analog (thiobencarb), undergo sequential liberation of the thiocarbamic acid and then S-methylation, forming the S-methyl thiocarbamates which are new metabolites and potential aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitors.

Molinate has been shown to generate an S-hexahydro-1H-azepine-1-carbonyl adduct on the Cys-125 residue of the beta2- and beta3-chains of rat globin analogous to that reported for disulfiram and to inhibit aldehyde dehydrogenase and nonspecific esterase activity.
To address these aims, rats were exposed ip to molinate, vernolate, ethiolate, EPTC, or butylate for 5 days after which hemogloblin was isolated and analyzed for protein adducts using HPLC and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
