The herbicide atrazine is widely distributed in the environment, and its reactivity with soil minerals is an important issue. We have studied atrazine degradation on the surface of synthetic {delta}-MnO{sub 2}(birnessite) using UV resonance raman spectroscopy and gas chromatography. The products are mainly mono and didealkyl atrazine. Atrazine disappearance is rapid {tau}1/2 {approx} 5 h at 30C and independent of whether O{sub 2} is present or not.
