Forchlorfenuron (CPPU), identified by CAS number 68157-60-8, is an exceptionally potent, highly effective plant growth regulator (PGR) belonging to the cytokinin class. Featuring the chemical formula C12H10ClN3O and a molecular weight of 247.68 g/mol, our premium technical-grade CPPU is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder with a guaranteed purity profile of 99.0%. While practically insoluble in water, it dissolves readily in organic solvents such as ethanol, acetone, and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). It is a highly sought-after active ingredient for manufacturers, agronomists, and commercial growers seeking to dramatically optimize crop yield, fruit quality, and market value. Biochemically, CPPU acts as a highly active synthetic cytokinin that accelerates cell division, cell elongation, and tissue differentiation. By working synergistically with endogenous plant hormones, it promotes lateral bud development, breaks apical dominance, delays leaf senescence, and directs the flow of vital nutrients directly to sink tissues, particularly developing fruits. CPPU is globally renowned for its ability to significantly increase the physical size, weight, and uniform shape of high-value crops—most notably table grapes, kiwi, melons, cherries, apples, and cucumbers—without compromising the natural sugar-to-acid ratio or the post-harvest storage life of the produce. In commercial agriculture, Forchlorfenuron is applied in extremely low, highly precise dosages (often at parts-per-million levels) to prevent physiological fruit drop and ensure reliable fruit setting under unfavorable weather conditions. It is widely formulated into liquid concentrates, soluble powders, or combined with gibberellic acid (GA) to yield highly effective synergistic growth-promoting solutions. To maintain its maximum chemical integrity, CPPU should be stored in a cool, dry, and dark warehouse in tightly sealed containers protected from heat, light, and moisture.
