Abstract

|
|
The herbicide dicamba (2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid) in soil and plants was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The samples were extracted with diethyl ether at pH 2, and washed with 0.1 N HCl, and then dried. The dried residue was derivatized in 1 mL of 10% H©üSO©þ-MeOH for 2 hr at 80 ¡É. The reaction mixture was neutralized with 4 mL of sodium bicarbonate solution and reextracted with 5 mL of diethyl ether. After the extract was concentrated, dicamba was determined by GC/MSSIM mode. There was good linearity above 0.999 in the ranges of the 1.0~100 §¶/§¸. Total 42 sample including 32 soil samples and 10 plants samples were analyzed by developed method. Dicamba was detected in the concentration range of 2.9-123.9 §¶/§¸ in 15 samples among 32 soil samples and in the concentration range of 43-33,252 §¶/§¸ in 5 samples among 10 plants samples. A cause of the wither and die of the pine trees is suspected to spray dicamba around or directly to them.
