Abstract
The intermediates of photodegradation and microbial degradation of pirimicarb insecticide were investigated by liquid chromatography coupled with ion-trap mass spectrometry (LC–IT-MS). Different intermediates were detected in the photodegradation and microbial degradation of pirimicarb. In the photodegradation of pirimicarb in aqueous solution 2-dimethylamino-5,6-dimethyl-4-hydroxypyrimidine (MW = 167), 2-methylamino-5,6-dimethylpyrimidin-4-yl-dimethylcarbamate (MW = 224) and 2-formylamino-5,6-dimethylpyrimidin-4-yl-dimethylcarbamate (MW = 252) were the main products. It was found that 2-dimethylamino-5,6-dimethyl-4-hydroxypyrimidine (MW = 167) was the major product in the microbial degradation of pirimicarb in soil.
