| Abstract | This study investigates the use of multi-element compound-specific isotope analysis (ME-CSIA) to monitor degradation processes of methoxychlor, a persistent organochlorine insecticide. Laboratory experiments examined the kinetics, release of transformation products, and carbon and chlorine isotope effects during methoxychlor degradation through alkaline hydrolysis, oxidation with alkaline-activated persulfate, and biotic reductive dechlorination. Results showed that hydrolysis and oxidation did not cause significant carbon and chlorine isotope fractionation, indicating that C-H rather than C-Cl bond cleavage was the rate-determining step. Conversely, biotic reductive dechlorination by a field-derived microcosm under strictly anoxic conditions displayed significant carbon (εC = −0.9 ± 0.3 ‰) and chlorine (εCl = −1.9 ± 1.0 ‰) isotope fractionation. Its corresponding calculated dual isotope slope (ΛC/Cl = 0.4 ± 0.1) and apparent kinetic isotope effects (AKIEC = 1.014 ± 0.005 and AKIECl = 1.006 ± 0.003) indicate a C-Cl bond cleavage as the rate-determining step, highlighting the difference with respect to the other studied degradation mechanisms. Changes in the microbial community diversity revealed that families such as Dojkabacteria, Anaerolineaceae, Dysgonomonadaceae, Bacteroidetes vadinHA17, Pseudomonadaceae, and Spirochaetaceae, may be potential agents of methoxychlor reductive dechlorination under anoxic conditions. This study advances the understanding of degradation mechanisms of methoxychlor and improves the ability to track its transformation in contaminated environments, including for the first time an isotopic perspective. |
