Detection and identification of alkyl methylphosphonate (RMPA) and methylphosphonate (MPA) are performed to verify the existence of nerve gases by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) after tert-butyldimethylsilylation (TBDMS). However, it is sometimes difficult to detect RMPA and MPA in soils. This study examines the relationship between the pedological characteristics and the aqueous extraction recoveries and TBDMS derivatization yields of ethyl-, isopropyl- and pinacolyl methylphosphonate and MPA for 21 soil samples. The aqueous extraction recoveries were measured directly by capillary electrophoresis. Andosols showed low extraction recoveries, while Regosols and Fluvisols showed high recoveries. RMPA were extracted with higher recoveries than MPA from all soils. MPA could not be extracted from Andosols. Within the pedological characteristics, phosphate absorption coefficients showed a strong negative correlation with the extraction recoveries of all phosphonates. The levels of RMPA and MPA in aqueous soil extracts were also determined for eight soils by GC-MS after TBDMS. Compared to the aqueous extraction recoveries, the yields of TBDMS derivatives were low. Strong anion exchange led to a significant improvement in derivatization yields. The efficiencies of TBDMS derivatization were inversely correlated with the levels of alkaline earth metals extractable from soils when the three soils that possessed high total carbon were excluded.
