G. Bi et al., STUDY ON THE SENSITIZED PHOTOLYSIS OF PYRETHROIDS .1. KINETIC CHARACTERISTIC OF PHOTOOXIDATION BY SINGLET OXYGEN, Chemosphere, 32(7), 1996, pp. 1237-1243
The kinetic characteristic of photolysis of-cypermethrin sensitized by
methylene blue, riboflavin and rose bengal is studied. The relationsh
ip between 1/K-expt1 and [A] confirms the mechanism of singlet oxygen
photooxidation. Values of CPM in the presence of methylene blue and ri
boflavin are 6.49 x 10(-6) and 2.27 x 10(-6) mol(-1). L . s(-1) respec
tively. The effective factors such as concentration of sensitizer, atm
osphere, probe for O-1(2) and polarity of solvents are discussed for t
he photooxidation kinetics of CPM. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science
