Abstrakt: Sorption and desorption of aminocyclopyrachlor (6-amino-5-chloro-2-cyclopropylpyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid) were compared to that of the structurally similar herbicide picloram (4-amino-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid) in three soils of differing origin and composition to determine if picloram data is representative of aminocyclopyrachlor behavior in soil. Aminocyclopyrachlor and picloram batch sorption data fit the Freundlich equation and was independent of concentration for aminocyclopyrachlor (1/n = 1), but not for picloram (1/n = 0.80–0.90). Freundlich sorption coefficients (Kf) for aminocyclopyrachlor were lowest in the eroded and depositional Minnesota soils (0.04 and 0.12 μmol(1–1/n)L1/nkg−1) and the highest in Molokai soil (0.31 μmol(1–1/n)L1/nkg−1). For picloram,Kfwas lower in the eroded (0.28 μmol(1–1/n)L1/nkg−1) as compared to the depositional Minnesota soil (0.75 μmol(1–1/n)L1/nkg−1). Comparing soil to soil,Kffor picloram was consistently higher than those found for aminocyclopyrachlor. Desorption of aminocyclopyrachlor and picloram was hysteretic on all three soils. With regard to the theoretical leaching potential based on groundwater ubiquity score (GUS), leaching potential of both herbicides was considered to be similar. Aminocyclopyrachlor would be ranked as leacher in all three soils if t1/2was > 12.7 days. To be ranked as non-leacher in all three soils, aminocyclopyrachlor t1/2would have to be <3.3 days. Calculated half-life that would rank picloram as leacher was calculated to be ∼15.6 d. Using the current information for aminocycloprachlor, or using picloram data as representative of aminocycloprachlor behavior, scientists can now more accurately predict the potential for offsite transport of aminocycloprachlor.
