Effect of pH on the hydrolysis of chlorothalonil

Abstract: Effect of pH on the Hydrolysis of Chlorothalonil Aqueous solutions of chlorothalonil (2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile) were prepared at 0.5 ppm, buffered at pH 5 to 9, and stored in the dark. No hydrolysis was observed at pH 7 or lower. At pH 9, chlorothalonil hydrolyzed to 4-hydroxy-2,5,6-trichloroisophthalonitrile and 3-cyano-2,4,5,6-tetrachlorobenzamide. The rate of decline of chlorothalonil followed first-order kinetics and was determined to be 1.8% per day using gas chromatographic and radiotracer t… Show more

“…It indicated that metabolites C and D derived from TPN degradation. We assume that metabolites C and D come from CCHT (Rouchaud and Roucourt 1988) and 3-cyano-2,4,5,6-tetrachlorobenzamide (CTB) (Szalkowski and Stallard 1977), respectively. CTB has been detected as a chemical hydrolysis product of TPN at pH 9.0 (Szalkowski and Stallard 1977); however, it is a former product of DTTC.…”

CTB has been detected as a chemical hydrolysis product of TPN at pH 9.0 (Szalkowski and Stallard 1977); however, it is a former product of DTTC. DTTC and CCHT have been recovered from soil under field conditions, and are thought to be the biodegradation products under mild conditions (Rouchaud and Roucourt 1988).…”

“…A calibration curve obtained for chlorothalonil using a series of working standard solutions over a concentration range from 0.3 to 300 ng mL -1 showed excellent linearity (r 2 > 0.99). Although moderate hydrolysis of chlorothalonil under a basic condition was previously reported, 21 obvious degradation was not observed during the LC/MS operation. The instrumental detection limit (IDL) was determined by multiplying the standard deviation of the quantified values of standard solutions for seven replicate measurements.…”

“…Chlorothalonil is stable to hydrolysis at pH 5 and 7 (Szalkowski and Stallard 1977;US EPA 1999). However, under basic conditions (pH 9), the compound degrades to form two products: 3-cyano-2,4,5,6-tetrachlorobenzamide and 4-hydroxyl-2,5,6-trichloroisophthalonitrile (Szalkowski and Stallard 1977).…”

Kwon and Armbrust (2006) proposed that the pathway for chlorothalonil degradation in aquatic systems would proceed by reductive dechlorination, oxidative dechlorination/hydrolysis and base hydrolysis (Fig.…”
