The widespread occurrence of N-(1,3-Dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine-quinone (6PPD-Q) in aquatic environments and its hazards to aquatic species underscore the necessity of comprehending its environmental fate. Here, we investigated the transformation from 6PPD to 6PPD-Q and the attenuation of 6PPD-Q in surface water under natural conditions. Contrary to prior findings, this work revealed that 6PPD-Q and its precursor 6PPD-OH/6PPD-(OH)2, were not detected through target analysis and suspect screening during 6PPD transformation in the surface water under the natural conditions. 6PPD-Q predominantly accumulated in TWPs in ambient atmosphere with 1.28 % mass yield from the 6PPD dissipation. Subsequently, 6PPD-Q was eluted from TWPs and released to the water environment. The investigation on the natural attenuation of 6PPD-Q in the surface water demonstrated that direct and indirect photolysis facilitated the rapid dissipation of 6PPD-Q with a half-life of 2.57 h. Utilizing the liquid chromatography high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS), including both time of flight (TOF) MS and Orbitrap MS, twelve novel transformation products (TPs) of 6PPD-Q were identified by using a comprehensive non-targeted screening strategy. The results from two dimensions gas chromatography (GC×GC) TOF-MS revealed additional two TPs. Based on the molecular structure of TPs, four major pathways of 6PPD-Q attenuation were proposed, including bond cleavage, hydroxylation, quinone cleavage and rearrangement. All TPs were predicted to exhibit lower toxicity, indicating the natural attenuation of 6PPD-Q reduced its toxicity and potential environmental risks. This study provides crucial insights into the environmental fate of 6PPD-Q, highlighting the significance of understanding both its formation from 6PPD and its subsequent attenuation processes under natural conditions. |
