Results of non target screening of lipophilic organic pollutants in the German Bight III: Identification and quantification of 2,5-dichloroaniline

The presence of 2,5-dichloroaniline in estuarine and marine waters is reported. A method for the quantification is described and the results of the quantification in water from the North Sea are given for 1990 and 1995. The concentrations reach from <0.01–0.65 ng/L in the German Bight, while 8.5 ng/L were found in the estuary of the river Elbe.
