Persistence and degradability

When ethylthiometon was added to soil under paddy conditions, there was rapid oxidation to the corresponding sulfoxide and sulfone. In silt loam soil, under paddy conditions, reduction of the sulfoxide to ethylthiometon occurred. At 28 deg C, the half-life of ethylthiometon ... /with/ its five metabolites was about 50 days.

Mobility in soil

Koc values of 642 and 1104(1), 811(2), 1,500(5), and 1,780(6) have been measured for disulfoton(1) and its Rf value has been determined to be 0.01 using soil thin layer chromatography(3). Koc values in 5 EUROSOILS where as follows: 4,622 - Vertic Cambisol clay loam (1.3% OM, pH 5.1), Sicily, Italy; 1,399 - Rendinza silt loam (3.7% OM, pH 7.4), Pelponnesos, Greece; 1,293 - Dystric Cambisol loam (3.45% OM, pH 5.2), Wales; 2,359 - Orthic Luvizol silt (1.55% OM, pH 6.5), Normandy France; 14,013 - Orthic Podzol loamy sand, Schl.-Holstein (9.25% OM, pH 3.2), Germany(4). According to a classification scheme(7), these Koc values suggest that disulfoton soil mobility is expected to range from low to immobile.
