An efficient and sensitive analytical method for simultaneous determination of trace amounts of a new insecticide broflanilide and its metabolites (S(PFH-OH)-8007 and DM-8007) residues in five typical Chinese soils (red soil, black soil, fluvo-aquic soil, cinnamon soil and paddy soil) was developed. The samples were prepared by a modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe method. The determination of broflanilide and its metabolites was conducted by ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry with an electrospray ionization source in the positive ion mode. This is the first report for the determination of broflanilide and its metabolites in different soils. Broflanilide and its metabolites were extracted from all soils with acetonitrile and purified by a mixture of primary secondary amine and graphitized carbon black. The average recoveries of the three compounds in five types of soil ranged from 85.3 to 111.8% and the relative standard deviations were less than 13.6%. The limit of quantification was 0.1 μg/kg for all three compounds. This method was successfully used to determine broflanilide and its metabolites in five types of soil. The method was validated to be simple and effective for the determination of trace residual broflanilide and its metabolites in five types of soil.
