Content SummaryHere, we report for the first time a laboratory investigation into the photochemical degradation of 2,2′,4,4′,6-pentabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-100) in ice solid samples using an artificial UV light source. Solid phase microextraction (SPME) was used as a sensitive extraction technique for monitoring trace amounts of the hydrophobic pollutant and its photoproducts. The results showed that ice photolysis kinetics for BDE-100 is similar to the one observed in the aqueous counterpart. The eight photoproducts identified consisted of brominated diphenyl ethers with lower bromine content and polybrominated dibenzofurans, suggesting two important photodegradation pathways for BDE-100 in ice solid samples: (i) stepwise reductive debromination and (ii) intramolecular elimination of HBren
