A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method for the detection and quantitation of sulfur mustard (HD) in water is described with detection at 200 nm. The detection based on the solubility of HD in water revealed that extremely low quantities of HD (4 to 5 mg/L) only are soluble. Experience shows that water is still the medium of choice for the analysis of HD in water and aqueous effluents in spite of the minor handicap of its half-life of ca. 4 minutes, which only calls for speedy analysis.
