Photolysis of pesticides: influence of epicuticular waxes from Persica laevis DC on the photodegradation in the solid phase of aminocarb, methiocarb and fenthion

Abstract: Pesticides with N,N-dimethyl and thiomethyl moieties (aminocarb, methiocarb and fenthion) were irradiated under artificial light (lambda > 290 nm) in an amorphous wax phase from Persica laevis DC. The effect of the presence of the wax on the photolysis rate differed in the three pesticides, increasing it in aminocarb, having little effect in methiocarb and slowing it down in fenthion. The presence of the wax affected the qualitative photodegradation behaviour of all the pesticides. The data obtained were compa… Show more

“…Considering the wax chemistry described in Section III.E, many researchers have conveniently examined photodegradation of a pesticide in simple organic solvents as surrogates of waxes, but their significantly different fluidity and simple structures should be kept in mind together with easier photoaddition of a solvent molecule. Photodegradation of carbamate and organophosphate pesticides was examined in thin film of epicuticular waxes extracted from a variety of citrus fruits (Cabras et al 1997b;Pirisi et al 1998Pirisi et al , 2001. Photolysis of 2,4-D (1) has been reported to be enhanced on Zea mays leaves and thus a more realistic model has been considered (Venkatesch and Harrison 1999).…”
