The occurrence of the herbicide dalapon (2,2-dichloropropionate) in potable water as a disinfection by-productElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: Fig. SI 1 shows concentrations of haloacetic acids (HAAs) (µg l−1) in treated potable water samples and Table SI 1 shows Spearman’s rank correlation between 2,2-dichloropropionate and HAAs. Fig. SI 2 contains a typical extracted ion chromatogram of 2,2-dichloropropionic acid and Tables SI 2 and 3 detail operating conditions for sample concentrator and autosampler in THM analysis.
