QoI

Famoxadone

Qo inhibitors (QoI),[1] or quinone outside inhibitors, are a group of fungicides used in agriculture. Some of these fungicides are among the most popular in the world.[2] QoI are chemical compounds which act at the quinol outer binding site of the cytochrome bc1 complex.

Most QoI common names end in -strobin and so are often called strobs.[3] QoI's are the resulting fusion of three fungicides families, the well-known family of strobilurins and two new families, represented by fenamidone and famoxadone. Some strobilurins are azoxystrobin, kresoxim-methyl, picoxystrobin, pyraclostrobin, and trifloxystrobin.
