Comment on 'Indirect Photolysis of Peifluoruchemicals: Hydroxyl Radical-Initiated Oxidation of N-Ethyl Perfluorooctane Sulfonamido Acetate (N-EtFOSAA) and Other Perfluoroalkanesulfonamides'

摘要

Plumlee et al. (1) investigate the hydroxyl radical initiated indirect photolysis of various penluoroalkyl sulfonamides. A substantial portion of this manuscript is dedicated to an analysis of pathways and mechanisms fcr the oxidation of these perfluorochemicals in aquatic systems. Unfortunately, the authors have neglected the acidity of primary and secondary amidic protons on a number of compounds under consideration.
