Residues of pentachloronitrobenzene and related compounds in greenhouse soils
article
Pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB, also known as Quintozene, Terraclor) is used as a soil fungicide in greenhouses, mainly for the control of Rhizoctonia and Botrytis in lettuce. During an examination (by gas liquid chromatography) of a number of soil samples from greenhouses, not only a PCNB peak was found in the chromatograms, but also several other peaks, which were thought to be related to that compound. The identity of these peaks was investigated by mass spectrometry. The results of this study are described.
