Abstract
The photochemical degradation of the fungicide cymoxanil {2-cyano-N-[(ethylamino)carbonyl]-2-(methoxyimino) acetamide} was studied in aqueous buffer solution (pH 5.9+/- 0.1) under UV light and in laboratory conditions. The degradation followed a pseudo- first-order kinetic with significant correlation coefficient. The main photoproducts were separated and tentatively identified by HPLC/UV and HPLC/MS data, as 3-ethyl-4-(methoxyamino)-2,5-dioxo-4-imidazolidinecarbonitrile, 1-ethyl-5-(methoxyimino)-2,4-imidazolidin-2,4-dione, ethylimidazolidinetrione and {[(ethylamino)carbonyl]-amino}oxoacetic acid. A photolysis pathway of cymoxanil is proposed.Copyright (c) 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
