Abstract
A new metabolite of chlorpyrifos was discovered in a human poisoning case in which a lethal quanitity of the pesticide was ingested. The metabolite was isolated from a human liver extract. After extensive cleanup, the metabolite was subjected to various instrumental analyses such as gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance. The metabolite was identified as a compound similar to chlorpyrifos with a methylthio (-SCH3) group substituted for a chlorine on the pyridinol ring. The method of isolation and the data obtained from the instrumental analyses are presented.
