Abstract

Recrystallized 2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-isopropylamino-s-triazine (atrazine), 2-chloro-4,6-bis(ethylamino)-s-triazine (simazine), and 2-methylmercapto-4-ethylamino-6-isopropylamino-s-triazine (ametryne) were adsorbed on filter paper, and exposed to ultraviolet light (253.7 millimicrons) or sunlight. All underwent photodecomposition, which was different under ultraviolet light and sunlight.
