Study of chlorothalonil photodegradation in natural waters and in the presence of humic substances

Photodegradation of chlorothalonil was studied in different natural waters (sea, river and lake) as well as in distilled water under natural and simulated solar irradiation. The effect of dissolved organic matter (DOM) such as humic and fulvic substances on the photodegradation rate of chlorothalonil was also studied in simulated sunlight. The presence of DOM enhanced the photodegradation of chlorothalonil with the exception of seawater. The kinetics were determined through gas chromatography electron capture detection (GC/ECD) and the photodegradation proceeds via pseudo-first-order reaction in all cases. Half-life ranged from 1 to 48 h. In natural and humic water chlorothalonil photodegradation gave rise to two different intermediates compared to distilled water demonstrating that the transformation of chlorothalonil depend on the constitution of the irradiated media and especially from DOM. The byproducts identified by GC/MS techniques were: chloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene, dichloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene, trichloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene and benzamide.     

Tetracycline photolysis in natural waters: loss of antibacterial activity

Previous work has shown that tetracycline undergoes direct photolysis in the presence of sunlight, with the decomposition rate highly dependent on conditions such as water hardness and pH. The purpose of this study was to examine the potential long-term significance of photoproducts formed when tetracycline undergoes photodegradation under a range of environmentally relevant conditions. Tetracycline was photolyzed in nine different natural and artificial water samples using simulated sunlight. The pH values of the samples ranged from 5 to 9. Total hardness values (combined Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ concentrations) varied from 30 to 450 ppm. Assays based on growth inhibition of two bacterial strains, Escherichia coli DH5α and Vibrio fischeri, were used to determine the antibacterial activity of tetracycline’s photoproducts in these water samples. In all tested conditions, it was determined that the photoproducts retain no significant antibacterial activity; all observed growth inhibition was attributable to residual tetracycline. This suggests that tetracycline photoproducts formed under a wide range of pH and water hardness conditions will not contribute to the selection of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in environmental systems.     

The role of carbonate radical in limiting the persistence of sulfur-containing chemicals in sunlit natural waters

Carbonate radical (*CO3-) is a selective oxidant that may be important in limiting the persistence of a number of sulfur-containing compounds in sunlit natural waters. Thioanisole, dibenzothiophene (DBT), and fenthion were selected to investigate the degradation pathway initiated by *CO3-; electron-rich sulfur compounds are particularly reactive towards the *CO3-. Using HPLC, GC, GC-MS and LC-MS for structural confirmation, the major photodegradation products of thioanisole and DBT were the corresponding sulfoxides. The sulfoxide products were further oxidized through reaction with *CO3- to the corresponding sulfone derivatives. Fenthion showed a similar pathway with appearance of fenthion sulfoxide as the major product. The proposed mechanism involves abstraction of an electron on sulfur to form a radical cation, which is then oxidized by dissolved oxygen. Each of the sulfur probes were further investigated in a sunlight simulator under varying matrix conditions. The highest rate constants occurred in the *CO3- matrix, and the lowest occurred in a matrix of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and bicarbonate. In synthetic and natural field water, thioanisole photodegraded faster than under direct photolysis, with half-lives of 75.1 and 85.8 min, respectively. Fenthion photodegraded more rapidly than thioanisole. DBT photodegraded rapidly in a *CO3- matrix with a half-life of 24.8 min, while the half-life of direct photolysis was 350 min. Photodegradation products of each compound were also investigated. Ultimately, *CO3- was found to contribute toward the photodegradation of sulfur-containing compounds in natural waters.     

Photodegradation of pentachlorophenol by sunlight in aquatic surface microlayers

Photodegradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) in aquatic surface microlayer (SM) was examined under natural sunlight. SM samples were collected using a glass plate, along with corresponding subsurface waters. PCP was added to samples of the SM and subsurface water. When all samples were exposed to the same natural sunlight conditions, the first order photodegradation rates of PCP in the SM water samples were different from those of PCP in corresponding subsurface water samples. The difference was correlated with the enrichment of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in SM compared to the corresponding subsurface waters. Enhanced photodegradation in SM may be due to increased abundance of photoreactants related to the UV-absorbing properties of dissolved organic materials in the SM as the result of photo-induced reactions. Effects of environmental factors, pH and salinity, on photodegradation process of PCP in SM were also evaluated.     

Fate of pharmaceuticals--photodegradation by simulated solar UV-light

The fate of pharmaceuticals in surface waters under solar irradiation was investigated. Photodegradation of pharmaceuticals caused by sun irradiation may be of major significance in the natural elimination process. Based on a data compilation from the literature, the lipid lowering agent metabolite clofibric acid, the iodinated X-ray contrast media iomeprol, which contribute to the adsorbable organic halogen compounds, and the antiepileptic drug carbamazepine were selected. The irradiation experiments were carried out in batch experiments with simulated UV–sunlight. The photodegradation of the pharmaceuticals showed a pseudo-first-order kinetics. The objective of this investigation was to demonstrate that the extent of photoinduced degradation of pharmaceuticals can vary significantly for the different pharmaceuticals and it strongly depends on the water constituents present in solution. The influences of different initial pharmaceutical concentrations, the presence of other pharmaceuticals like carbamazepine or clofibric acid and the presence of natural organic matter on the photochemical degradation rate of pharmaceuticals in aqueous solutions were investigated. Analyses of the pharmaceuticals and their photodegradation products were carried out by high performance liquid chromatography with diode-array and fluorescence detection.     

Photodegradation of the herbicide penoxsulam in aqueous methanol and acetonitrile

Penoxsulam is a triazolopyrimidine sulfonamide group of rice herbicide. The phototransformation of penoxsulam was studied under UV light (lambda max >or= 290 nm) and sunlight in aqueous methanol and acetonitrile solvent system using TiO2 as sensitizer. The rate of photodegradation of penoxsulam in different solvent systems followed first-order kinetics and calculated half-lives was found to be in the range of 51.89-73.41 h and 62.70-97.09 h for UV light and sunlight respectively in the presence or absence of sensitizer. From this study, a total of six photoproducts were identified and characterized on the basis of Q-Tof micromass spectral data. The plausible mechanism of phototransformation involved were hydrolysis, photo oxidation of the sulfonamide group, breaking of sulfonamide bond, loss of amino and sulfonic acid group.     

Direct and indirect photolysis of two quinolinecarboxylic herbicides in aqueous systems

The photodegradation of two quinolinecarboxylic herbicides, 7-chloro-3-methylquinoline-8-carboxylic acid (QMe) and 3,7-dichloroquinoline-8-carboxylic acid (QCl), was studied in aqueous solution at different irradiation wavelengths. The effect of sunlight irradiation was investigated also in the presence of titanium dioxide (TiO₂). UV irradiation degraded rapidly QMe affording 7-chloro-3-methylquinoline (MeQ) through a decarboxylation reaction. The reaction rate was lower in the presence of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) because of the adsorption of the herbicide on the organic components. Instead, QCl was stable under both UV light and sunlight irradiation. The irradiation of QMe or QCl solutions with simulated sunlight in the presence of TiO₂ produced the complete mineralization of the two herbicides.     

Seasonal variability of 1-chloropyrene on atmospheric particles and photostability in toluene

The occurrence of a mutagenic compound, 1-chloropyrene (Cl-Py), in extracts of ambient particulate matter at an urban site in Japan has been investigated. Samples were collected with a high-volume air sampler for 24 h periods over the course of 1 week in winter (February), spring (May), summer (August), and autumn (November) 2002. The Cl-Py levels showed seasonal variation, ranging from 2.4 pg/m(3) (summer) to 18.9 pg/m(3) (winter). This variation would indicate that the lower temperatures in winter results in an increased distribution of Cl-Py from vapor phase to the particle phase. In addition, there is also the possibility that ambient Cl-Py is emitted from seasonal sources or is susceptible to photodegradation by sunlight, or both. The photodegradation of Cl-Py in a laboratory experiment was conducted to simulate the compound's fate on airborne particle surfaces. The degradation of Cl-Py proceeded by a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 0.72 h(-1). In the presence of a radical sensitizer, 9,10-anthraquinone (AQ), the photodegradation rate of Cl-Py was elevated in comparison with the rate in the absence of AQ. In addition, the dechlorination of Cl-Py (i.e., the formation of Py) occurred in the presence of AQ.     

Photodegradation of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and ethylenediamine disuccinic acid (EDDS) within natural UV radiation range.

The rate of photodegradation of two chelating agents, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and an isomeric mixture of ethylenediamine disuccinic acid (EDDS), was analysed in humic lake water and in distilled water using exposure to sunlight, and in the laboratory using lamps emitting UV radiation in the range 315-400 nm. Degradation was studied using Fe(III) complexes and sodium salts of chelates. Fe(III) complexes were illuminated at pH 3.1 and 6.5. The results demonstrated that the rate of photodegradation of Fe(III)-EDTA and Fe(III)-EDDS complexes seems to be pH dependent. In the laboratory experiments degradation occurred much faster when the original pH was 3.1 rather than 6.5. The photodegradation of the isomeric mixture of EDDS was markedly faster than the degradation of EDTA both in the laboratory and field experiments, and both in humic and distilled water. The results indicated that in natural waters photodegradation of EDDS is independent of initial speciation of EDDS, while degradation of EDTA is dependent on its existence as Fe(III)-EDTA species.     

Photodegradation of the novel fungicide fluopyram in aqueous solution: kinetics,transformation products,and toxicity evolvement

The aqueous photodegradation of fluopyram was investigated under UV light (λ?≥?200 nm) and simulated sunlight irradiation (λ?≥?290 nm). The effect of solution pH, fulvic acids (FA), nitrate (NO₃ ^?), Fe (III) ions, and titanium dioxide (TiO₂) on direct photolysis of fluopyram was explored. The results showed that fluopyram photodegradation was faster in neutral solution than that in acidic and alkaline solutions. The presence of FA, NO₃ ^?, Fe (III), and TiO₂ slightly affected the photodegradation of fluopyram under UV irradiation, whereas the photodegradation rates of fluopyram with 5 mg L^?1 Fe (III) and 500 mg L^?1 TiO₂ were about 7-fold and 13-fold faster than that without Fe (III) and TiO₂ under simulated sunlight irradiation, respectively. Three typical products for direct photolysis of fluopyram have been isolated and characterized by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. These products resulted from the intramolecular elimination of HCl, hydroxyl-substitution, and hydrogen extraction. Based on the identified transformation products and evolution profile, a plausible degradation pathway for the direct photolysis of fluopyram in aqueous solution was proposed. In addition, acute toxicity assays using the Vibrio fischeri bacteria test indicated that the transformation products were more toxic than the parent compound.
