The present study investigated the reactivity and oxidation mechanisms of salbutamol (SAL) and terbutaline (TBL), two typical beta 2-adrenoceptor agonists, towards sulfate radical (SO4 center dot-) by using photo-activated persulfate (PS). The reaction pathways and mechanisms were proposed based on products identification using high resolution HPLC-ESI-MS, laser flash photolysis (LFP) and molecular orbital calculations. The results indicated that SO4 center dot- was the dominant reactive species in the UV/PS process. The second-order rate constants of sulfate radical reaction with SAL and TBL were measured as (3.7 +/- 0.3) x 10(9) and (4.2 +/- 0.3) x 10(9) M-1 s(-1) by LFP, respectively. For both SAL and TBL, phenoxyl radicals were found to play key roles in the orientation of the primary pathways. For SAL, a benzophenone derivative was generated by oxidation of the phenoxyl radical. However, in the case of TBL, the transformation of the phenoxyl radical into benzoquinone was impossible. Instead, the addition of -OSO3H on the aromatic ring was the major pathway. The same reactivity pattern was observed in the case of TBL structural analogs resorcinol and 3,5-dihydroxybenzyl alcohol. Our results revealed that basic conditions inhibited the decomposition of SAL and TBL, while, increasing PS dose enhanced the degradation. The present work could help for a better understanding of the difference in oxidation reactivity of substituted phenols widely present in natural waters. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
