title: Environmental transformation of triadimefon in water and on plant leaf surface.
abstract: Phototransformation of triadimefon was studied in aqueous solution and on plant leaf surface under natural and simulated conditions. Photoproducts such as 4-chlorophenol, 1-(4-chlorophenoxy)-3,3-dimethyl-1-(1,2,4-triazole-1-yl)-butan-2-ol and 1-phenoxy-3,3-dimethyl-but-2-one were identified on leaf as well as in aqueous solution. A new photoproduct product 1-(4-chlorophenoxymethyl)-1,2,4-triazole was identified only on the leaf surface. The rate of degradation was more in tap water as compared to rain and distilled water.
