Abstract
We report a novel aqueous derivatization of methylmercury chloride by NaBH 4 to mehtymercury hydride (CH 3 HgH), a volatile and unexpectedly stable species which we determined has a half-life of approximately 2 h. The analytical apparatus consisted of a purge and trap (PT) unit linked to a gas chromatograph (GC), in line with a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR). The sample was purged with nitrogen, and volatile compounds were concentrated in a cold trap
