Metazachlor degradation in soil was studied in fields of spring barley, turnips, brussels sprouts, and leeks. Metazachlor in soil was transformed into 2-hydroxy-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl methyl)-acetamide (compound 2), 2-chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-acetamide (compound 3), and 4,4-methylenebis-(2,6-dimethylbenzenamine) (compound 4). Soil concentrations of compound 4 were always lower than 0.1 ppm. The half-life of metazachlor in the 0- to 10-cm soil layer was 1 to 3 mo. Metazachlor and compounds 2, 3, and 4 were not detected in the 10- to 20- and 20- to 30-cm soil layers. Metazachlor and metabolites (compounds) 2, 3, and 4 were not detected in barley grain or in the edible part of the vegetables. The sensitivity limit for these compounds was 0.02 ppm.
