Summary The separation of fenitrothion and seven possible degradation products namely aminofenitrothion, fenitrooxon, S-methylfenitrothion, formylfenitrothion, hydro-xymethylfenitrothion, nitrocresol and thiocresol, was accomplished on a non-polar stationary phase with a hydrophylic mobile phase. Operating parameters were optimized to achieve maximum resolution. Recovery of the eight chemicals was done using Amberlite resins XAD-2, −4, and −7. Comparison was made with the conventional solvent extraction technique using methylene chloride and ethyl acetate, respectively. In general, recoveries were good with the resins except for formylfenitrothion, hydroxymethylfenitrothion and thiocresol. An improvement in recovery was observed for S-methylfenitrothion with ethyl acetate but methylene chloride was generally less efficient than the resins. Recovery from environmental water was successful.
