Abstract

Abstract Degradation of fluchloralin [N‐(2‐chloroethyl)‐2,6‐ dinitro‐N‐propyl‐4‐(trifluoromethyl)aniline] in soil was studied in laboratory under aerobic and flooded anaerobic conditions. The herbicide degraded faster in anaerobic than in aerobic soil. The amendment of flooded anaerobic soil with organic matter further enhanced the degradation. The major degradation products identified were partially dealkylated fluchloralin, partially reduced fluchloralin and its cyclized product.
