Comments: This paper presents first experiments of laboratory investigations of the photodegradation by direct photolysis 
(lambda > 290 nm) of cholorotahlonil, dichlobenil, chloroxynil, bromoxynil, and ioxynil in aqueous, pH-buffered, and organic 
solutions and the calculation of the quantum yields. The quantum yields obtained in water of chloroxynil, bromoxynil, and 
ioxynil are Phi = 0.0060, 0.0093, and 0.0024, respectively.
