We investigated the chemical transformation of atrazine with sodium azide. Sodium azide reduced the atrazine level in the control reactors at a rate much faster than the natural anaerobic biotransformation rate in wetland sediment. The chemical transformation of sodium azide with atrazine was observed in the D.I. water sample reactors. It was evident from the study that higher the sodium azide concentration, the faster the dissipation of atrazine. Atrazine disappeared faster in anaerobic conditions than aerobic conditions. Based on limited mass spectral analysis, 3-ethylamino, 5-isopropylamino-s-triazyl azide and 3-ethylamino, 5-isopropylamino-s-triazinone appeared to be the final transformation products from the chemical interactions between atrazine and sodium azide. This study clearly demonstrated that sodium azide must not be used to prepare control reactors in atrazine degradation studies. |
