Monitoring the light-induced decomposition course of azo dyes is essential to understand their degradation pathways and mechanisms. In this study, two model dyes are synthesized and used for stimulating the photodegradation processes of azo and hydrazone dyes, respectively. Their intermediates formed during initial and final fading processes are characterized by high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and ion chromatography. Results reveal that no dramatic differences are observed between the two dyes, although hydrazone dye would undergo a more complicated degradation process. Hydroxyl radicals are the dominant reactive species involved in the photodegradation of both model dyes under ultraviolet irradiation. In the initial steps, the intermediates are almost hydroxylated derivatives, while low-molecular-weight dicarboxylic acids and their hydroxylated and esterified derivatives, as well as non-volatile inorganic ions, are detected and evidenced in the final steps. Furthermore, photodegradation pathways and mechanisms for the two model dyes are proposed accordingly.
