Abstract
This paper reports the preparation and herbicidal evaluation of a small library of acylhydrazones based on the synthetic herbicide metribuzin. The hydrazone linkage easily obtained by reaction of metribuzin with aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, masks efficiently the exocyclic amino group, thereby altering significantly H-bonding with the receptor and increasing the lipophilicity relative to the parent herbicide. The structures of all compounds, including key stereochemical issues on conformation and E/Z configuration around the C[bond, double bond]N bond were thoroughly elucidated by spectroscopic methods, and unambiguously corroborated by X-ray diffraction analysis. The herbicidal assays using an aliphatic and an aromatic acylhydrazone were performed on tomato and rapeseed plants grown in greenhouse. Our results demonstrate, regardless of rate application, that such acylhydrazone formulations do not alter the selectivity of metribuzin. Moreover, the herbicide activity was even higher in the alkyl derivative than that achieved by commercial metribuzin, thus suggesting that this substance can be applied with no need of combination with chemical coadjuvants, unlike most formulations of commercially available herbicides. Therefore, the study shows the promising effect of chemical derivatization of a common herbicide as metribuzin, to improve the herbicide activity without compromising selectivity, and allowing the farmers its use in crop protection safely and effectively.

Abstract
Pesticides are heavily used in agriculture to protect crops from diseases, insects, and weeds. However, only a fraction of the used pesticides reaches the target and the rest slips through the soil, causing the contamination of ground- and surface water resources. Given the emerging interest in the on-site detection of analytes that can replace traditional chromatographic techniques, alternative methods for pesticide measuring have recently encountered remarkable attention. This review gives a focused overview of the literature related to the electrochemical detection of selected pesticides. Here, we focus on the electrochemical detection of three important pesticides; glyphosate, lindane and bentazone using a variety of electrochemical detection techniques, electrode materials, electrolyte media, and sample matrix. The review summarizes the different electrochemical studies and provides an overview of the analytical performances reported such as; the limits of detection and linearity range. This article highlights the advancements in pesticide detection of the selected pesticides using electrochemical methods and point towards the challenges and needed efforts to achieve electrochemical detection suitable for on-site applications.

Abstract
Bentazone is one of the most problematic pesticides polluting groundwater resources. It is on the list of pesticides that are mandatory to analyze at water work controls. The current pesticide measuring approach includes manual water sampling and time-consuming chromatographical quantification of the bentazone content at centralized laboratories. Here, we report the use of an electrochemical approach for analytical determination of bentazone that takes 10 s. The electrochemical electrodes were manually screen printed, resulting in the low-cost fabrication of the sensors. The current response was linearly proportional to the bentazone concentration with a R2 ~ 0.999. We demonstrated a sensitivity of 0.0987 μA/μM and a limit of detection of 0.034 μM, which is below the U.S. Health Advisory level. Furthermore, the sensors have proved to be reusable and stable with a drop of only 2% after 15 times reuse. The sensors have been applied to successfully quantify bentazone spiked in real groundwater and lake water. The sensing method presented here is a step towards on-site application of electrochemical detection of pesticides in water sources.
