Aclonifen is a unique diphenyl ether herbicide. Despite its structural similarities to known inhibitors of the protoporphyrinogen oxidase (e.g. acifluorfen, bifenox or oxadiazon), which result in leaf necrosis, aclonifen causes a different phenotype that is described as bleaching. This also is reflected by the Herbicide Resistance Action Committee (HRAC) classification that categorizes aclonifen as an inhibitor of pigment biosynthesis with an unknown target.

Aclonifen靶向二甲基茄酰基二磷酸合酶，代表一种除草剂的新型作用方式。

Aclonifen是一种独特的二苯醚除草剂。尽管它与原卟啉原氧化酶的已知抑制剂（例如acifluorfen，bifenox或oxadiazon）的结构相似，导致叶片坏死，但aclonifen会引起另一种表型，称为漂白。除草剂抗性行动委员会（HRAC）分类也反映了这一点，该分类将阿氯苯胺分类为具有未知靶标的色素生物合成抑制剂。
