Maleic hydrazide
Under aerobic conditions maleic hydrazide was rapidly degraded with a half-life of 0.2 to 3 days. The only identified major product was CO2. Mineralization was observed to a large extent. Low levels of the minor metabolites maleimide, maleic acid and succinic acid are also observed, but the maximum amount of any of the metabolites did not exceed 10% AR.
