description 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor is one of the important herbicides to solve the problem of weed control. With the widespread and continued use of HPPD inhibitor (HPPDi) herbicides, it may inevitably put pressure on the environment. Humic acid (HA) can effectively interact with pesticides through sorption or covalent bond formation and promote the degradation of pesticides, which can reduce the risk of pesticides in the environment. In the present study, the interactions of four HPPDi herbicides (sulcotrione, tembotrione, topramezone and mesotrione) with HA were reported and comparative assessment of the binding using multispectral technology, density functional theory (DFT) calculation and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS). Time-resolved measurements and the Stern-Volmer constant at different temperature verified that HPPDi can bind with HA through the static quenching mechanism. From the thermodynamic parameters, the interaction force between HA and sulcotrione, tembotrione, topramezone and mesotrione was provided by electrostatic force. DFT, binding constant and three-dimensional (3D) fluorescence peak variation all indicated that the order of the binding ability of the four HPPDi and HA was mesotrione > tembotrione > sulcotrione > topramezone. According to dynamic light scattering (DLS), pH 7 is most conducive to the formation of HA-HPPDi complexes. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and 2D-COS showed that HA combined with HPPDi through aromatic C-H, CO and C-X, and the first binding group to HA was almost all CO. Sulcotrione, tembotrione, topramezone and mesotrione quench the endogenous fluorescence of HA by a static quenching mechanism and bind to HA through electrostatic interaction to form a complex. These results provide important insights into the combination of environmental pollutants with HA.
