Abstract
The herbicide 3',4'-dichloropropionanilide decomposes in soil to carbon dioxide and 3,4-dichloroaniline. and two molecules of the latter compound are condensed to form 3,3',4,4'-tetrachloroazobenzene. Soil microorganisms are involved in both transformations.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
