research project will focus on characterizing the likely transformation products of organic chemicals due to chemical and biological processes in aquatic, terrestrial and atmospheric systems. These transformations will be represented by reaction schemes associated
with specific functional groups that may be present in an organic molecule. The primary objective of the research project is to assemble libraries of transformation pathways affecting the environmental fate of chemical classes that are a priority to the Agency.
To accomplish this, data from published/completed experimental studies will be compiled and analyzed to characterize rates of transformation of various chemicals in the natural environment. This data will include the identity of transformation products, the
fractional formation of the products, and the observed rates of transformation. The research project will further seek to elucidate the role of ambient conditions (e.g., pH, temperature and turbidity) and the presence of other reactive species in controlling
the transformation pathway and reaction kinetics. This data will also form the basis for the development of Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships (QSARs) based on molecular properties for predicting transformation rates.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
