.. ABSTRACT
To provide input data for a mathematical model to estimate potential
groundwater contamination from chemicals in land disposal sites, hydrolysis
rate constants were determined for 31 regulated chemicals under carefully
controlled conditions. Hydrolysis rates were measured under sterile conditions
at precisely controlled temperatures and at three pH levels (3,7, and 11).
Conditions were adjusted to provide sufficiently precise rate constants to meet
modeling requirements determined through model sensitivity tests. In addition
to close monitori;:g of temperature and pH, precautions were taken to minimize
impact of adventitious processes. Chemical concentrations as a function of
incubation time were measured by gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, or
ion exchange chromatography. Identities and purities of the chemicals were
determined by mass spoctrometry supplemented, in some cases, by infrared spec-
trometry. .
Four chemicals (PL-trans-4-chlorosti1bene oxide, benzyl chloride,
2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid methyl ester, and lindane) were used as standard
reference compounds (SRCs) to ensure reproducibility and control of two parameters,
temperature and pH, that affect hydrolysis rates of chemicals in an aqueous
environment. The acetate and lindane were used as SRCs in the pH ranges of 8 to 9.5
and 9.5 to 11, respectively. Benzyl chloride and the stilbene oxide were used in
conjunction with neutral and acidic hydrolysis rate determinations, respectively.
Determinations of the hydrolysis rates of the SRCs were repeated at varying
temperatures and pH's over a 15-month period. During the study, the rates for
the SRCs were determined on four gas chromatographs and three liquid chromatographs
by four chemists. For these determinations the greatest variability from the
mean at the 95% confidence limit was ±12% for the acetate. The mean
and uncertainty at the 95" confidence level was: stilbene oxide (17.0 ±2.0 M-l
niin-1), benzyl chloride [ (7.2 ± 0.5) X 10"4 mirr1], acetate (699 ± 77 M"1 min'1), anc
lindane (3.3 ± 0.1 M'1 mirr1)'.
Hydrolysis rate constants are reported for the following 54 compounds:
n-(aminothioxomethyl) acetamide, acetom'trile, 2-acetylaminofluorine,
auramine, azaserine, chlorainbucil, chlordane, chlornaphazine,
beta-chlornaphthalene, 2-chloro-l,3-butadiene, l-(0-chlorophenyl)
thiourea, 3-chloropropanenitrile, cyclophosphamide, DDD (p,p'
isomer), daunoinycin, diallate, dichloroethyl ether, 1,2-dichloropro-
pane, 0,0-diethyl-O-pyranzinyl phosphorothioate, diisopropylfluoro
phosphate, dimethoate, 2,4-dithiobiuret, ethyl methanesulfonate,
ethylene thiourea, ethyiene-fcn_s_-(dithiocarbamic acid), 2-fTuoroaceta-
rnide, hexachlorobenzene, hexachloroethane, hexaethyl tetraphosphate,
isodrin, 1asiocarpine, 1indane, maloncnitrile, melphalan, methomyl,
methyl methacrylate, N-methyl-'i-nitro-M-nitroso-guanidine, 2-methyl-
aziridine, methylthio-'raci1, alpha-nephthay1thiourea, N-Nitroso-N-
e'chylurea, n-Nitroso-n-methylurethane, octamethylpyrophosphoramide,

. FOREWORD .
As environmental controls become more expensive and penalties for judg-
ment errors.become more severe, environmental management requires more precise-
assessment tools based on greater knowledge of relevant phenomena. As a part
of tin's Laboratory's research on occurrence, movement, transformation, impact,
and control of chemical contaminants, the Measurements Branch determines the
occurrence of unsuspected organic pollutants in the aquatic environment and
develops and applies techniques to measure physical, chemical, and microbial
transformation and etjuilibrium constants for use in assessment models and for
development of property reactivity correlations.
In implementinq the land banning provision of the 1984 Hazardous and
Solid Wasvc- Amendments to PL 98-616 (RCRA), a mathematical model, was developed
to estimate notential groundwater contamination from chemicals in land disposal
sites. Applujtion of the model requires as input th^ hydrolysis rate constant(s)
for the chemical of concern. This report documents the laboratory measurement
of hydrolysis rate constants for 31 compounds regulated under Rf.RA. Approximately
four thousand chemical analyses were required on 35 different organic compound1;
(including standard reference compounds) to perform the rate constant measure-
ments. Experimental conditions were selected and carefully controlled to
provide sufficiently precise, rate constants to meet the requirements resulting
from model sensitivity tests.

.1.1 Purpose . .
In inplementihg the .1984 Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments to the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), EPA's Office of Solid Waste
(OSW) will apply a decision rule based on a mathematical model to chemicals
under consideration that considers horizontal underground mover ent of a
chemical based on advection, dispersion, sorpticn, and chemical hydrolysis.
Application of the model requires as input the second-order or first-crder .
. hydrolysis rate constants for chemicals containing hydrolyzable functional
groups. A total of 362 compounds, divided into three groups, are to be
regulated initially. This report provides first- and second-order .hydrolysis
rate constants for those organic compounds in the second group for which
satisfactory values were not developed, in an earlier evaluation process and
describes the laboratory experiments conducted to measure hydrolysis rate
constants (1).
1.2 Background -
The Hazardous and Solid1 Waste Amendment?, of 1984 to PL 98-616 (RCRA)
stipulate that land disposal of "hazardous wastes" is prohibited unless the EPA
Administrator determines that prohibition of 'some wastes is not required to
protect hu-Tan health and the environment because those particular wastes are
not likely to r-?ach unacceptable levels in groundwater as a result of land
disposal. The 'amendments define hazardous waste as any of 362 specific compounds
(either part of or inclusive or Appendix VI11 compounds). In compiling this
list, major considerations wert toxicity of the material and quantity of waste
material generated annually. ' .
To provide a practical tool for determining which listed hazardous
.materials -.ay be disposed of by land disposal and under what conditions, the
! use of a relatively simple model was suggested that would estimate potential
| '; 'ouridw'a'ter contamination for each listed chemical. The model considers hori-
| zontal movement based on advection,-dispersion, sorption, and tran's format ion.
,;'.' . Hydrolysis is the only transformation process specifically considered. Although
>. other transfonnation processes, such as microbial degradation and chemical
« . . reduction, -.ay take place, they are not presently included in-the model. The
:' . model ;2SStries no unsaturated ZODL- for groundvVJter and assumes saturated ground-
water "zones" ranying from 3 meters to 560 meters in .depth, the mean depth of
I \ those considered is 78.6 meters. 'Organic carbon contents used in the model
, will range.from 1' to Q.1%. The point at which the groundwater must meet
standards may vary but was orign-al ly set'at 150 meters -horizontal ly from the
' point of ftnroduction. ' " ... '
; ' For each cbenical considered, the maximum alIqwable concentration for the
'j . receiving g'roundwater, 15Q moters "downstream," is entered into the model,
i . which asstnes envi rorwental characteristics for selected subterraniari systems.
). . The concentration cf leachate leaving the disposal si.te is computed for various
; conditions of rainfall, soil type, pil, etc. A computed leachate concentration
i that would cause unacceptable groundwater conditions is selected by OSW as the
t - . . ' ..
i -: ".'". .''. : . . r . ,' -.'-.
-------
maximum al lowa.ble concentration in leachates. A chemical nay be disposed of by
land only if freatnenL brings the leachate concentration down to the level
'selected -that, woul d ,;ot cau.se grot/ndwater to exceed the acceptable concentration.
The. model, inn"approach appl ies to landfills, surface impoundments, waste pilei,
and.land treatment operations. Land treatment operations may be addressed in a
different manner to allow for reduction in concentrations resulting from the
l.and -treatment process. -. '
... It-is. necessary to acquire octaiiol./water partition coefficients and
hydrolysis rate constants, for' each of tne 352.chemicals except for solvents
("fast track" in the list), .vhich will be treated as non-degrading, non-sorbing
constituents and chemicals already banned by the State, of- California (listed as
"California"). These two groups comprise 21 and 44 chemicals, respectively.
The remainder of the 362 ch.micals were separated into 3 groups by OSW: SI in
the "first third," 12! in the "second third," and 95 in the "third third."
Rate constant :and partition Coefficient data are required for these three groups.
by 7/36, -5/87, and 4/83, respectively. Partition .coefficient data are reported
in a companion document and have "orrespondinn delivery dates.
Hydrolysis of the organic compounds OP the OSW list of chemicals was
addressed by- d working group cf four experts assembled at the Environmental
Research Laboratory, Athens, G'«, on April 25 and 26, 1985. The experts were
chosen for their extensive t'uv.-ret ic,jl and experimental knowledge and experience
in the area of chenical reactivity of organic compounds in water. The work
group consisted of Cr. N. Lee X'olfo, U.S. Cnvi ro amenta! Protection Agency,
Athens,'.GA; Dr. Rob.rrt Taft, University of California, 'Irvine, CA; Dr. Clifford
Piunton, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA; and Or. William Mabey,
Kennedy/v'encks engineers, San KranciscO; CA.
The panel addressed only the organic compounds on the list of 362 chemicals
provided by Gi>W. Ihe inorganics included on the list were not addressed. The
inorganics will be examined .by another group and reported under a separate .
task. .For the organoinetalIic compounds on the list, the panel did not attempt
to estimate data, but did provide experimental rate data where available.
The evaluative procedure the panel followed was to divide the compounds
into three categories: those that had no hydrolyzt:ble functional groups, those
that would hydrolyze witn half-lives gr.jdtcr than a year, and those that would
hydro1y«:e with half-lives of less than a year. Hydrolys.is rate data were-provided
for some of the chemicals on the list. Ihe present and previous report was
.concerned with developing hydro'ysis rate data for the remainder.
. Of'the 31 compounds-in the "first thi r.j," .54. are either inorganic, contain
no hydroly-rable .functional group, contain a hydrolyzable functional group that
was judged by exports to be non-labile, or have acceptable literature values

Table 1 lists the chemical name and Chemical Abstract Number of "the 54
."second third" compounds'. The CAS number was used as the definitive chemica-1
descriptor when there was any ambiguity in re.latiny the name 'of the chemical to'
the structure of the compound. The expert panel did not have time to conduct
" an extensive search of the Iiterature because of the number of compounds and
short time period. Before beginning laboratory measurements, we, therefore,
conducted a three-pronged search of 'the.1iterature. The literature was searched
for methods of chemical analysis, laboratory generated hydrolysis values, as
we'll as protocols to follow.in laboratory generation of hydrolysis data. The
literature searches were conducted either-manually or electronically through
use of DIALOG, a database management system that yields access to over 200 databases.
Compounds with acceptable rate data extracted from the literature are noted in
Table 6, the summary table for rate data on the 54 compounds.
Suggested screening protocols and detailed test protocols for hydrolysis
of che-.nicals in water were., reported by Mabey £t aj_. (2). Suffet et £K (3)
suggested refinements to the above hydrolysis protocols. Neither source docu-
mented detailed laboratory methods to apply the suggested protocols; however,
the suggested protocols were based.on .present knowledge of the theory and
experimental aspects of hydrolysis and, therefore, provided a good foundation
to initiate the laboratory determination of hydrolysis rate constants for the
05W chemicals. The methods used for generation of the reported data evolved
after consideration of the two documents, discussions with Dr. Lee Wolfe,
j. Atnens EKL, and our experience with the "first third" measurements.
i The concept of standard reference compounds (SRC) evolved from discussions.
' . with Dr. Wolfe, Mr. Will ion T. Donaldson, and Mr. Heinz Kcllig all of Athens
j ERL. Standard reference compounds are compounds that are used a.s quality
1 assurance standards and as references in inter-laboratory generation of -hydrolysis
I . data. Repetition of rate constant measurement for these compounds over the course
I of thn two reporting periods has established baseline information for evaluating
experimental techniques and for all aspects of quality assurance. Four compounds
were selected, one each for acid and neutral hydrolysis, and two for basic .
.! .hydrolysis (Section 3.1). . . . ; "
Each standard reference compound is also amenable to analysis by both
gas chromatography and liquid chromatography. Reproduction of the hydrolysis
constants of the SKCs at the established concentrations, plls, and temperatures

SECTION 2
HYDROLYSIS KINETICS
2.1 Hydrolysis Mechanism . . . '
Hydrolysis of organic compounds refers to reactio.i of the compound with
water in which bonds are broken and new bonds with HO- and H- are formed. A
common example is the reaction of an alkyl hali-de with the loss of halide ion
RX + HOH .- ROH + HX (or H+, X~)
j The rate of the reaction may be promoted by the hydronium ion (H+, or HjO+)
i . or the hydroxyl ion (OH"). The former is referred to as specific acid catalyis
! and the latter as specific base catalysis. These two processes together with
! the neutral water reaction were the only mechanisms considered in this study.
1 This allowed direct measurement of the HjC* or OH" concentration through, accurate
determination of solution pH.
Some chemicals show a pH dependent elimination reaction:
H X
H+ or
- C - C --> C = C + HX
OH- . . .
In this study only the disappearance of substrate was monitored wi-th no attempts
to identify mechanisms. .
2.2 Rate Laws
If all processes referred to in Section 2.1 are included where the rate of
hydrolysis is given by tne equation,
.' d[C] '. - - . .":'
- ---- -- kh[C] = kA[H+][C] + kB[OH-][C] + kN'[H20][C] : (2.1) .
dt '
where [C] is the concentration of reactant and kn is the pseudo-'i rst-oroier rate
constant at a specific pH and temperature, k,\ and kp, are second-: rder rate
constants and kjj1 the pseudu-t'irst-order rate constant for the acid, base and
neutral promoted processes, respectively. The water concentration is essen-
tially not depleted .by the reaction and much greater than [C], thus ktj'Q^O] is
a constant (kv). .
Equation 2.1 assures each individual rate process is first order in
substrate, thus k|, can be Jefined as: . .
. kh-=-kA[H+] + kB[0!r] + kN .-. (2.2)
-------
Using the autoprotolysis equilibrium expression . ;
.- ' . (2.3)
equation 2.2 may be rewritten as
' . -
+ kr- : ' (2.4)
' '
Equation. 2.4. shows. the dependence of k^ on [H*] and on the relative values of.lu,
kB>- and kN. ' . .' ...
As a good approximation, the second-order rc'cc constants for acid hydrolysis
and .for base hydrolysis can be calculated by dividing, the pseudo-first order
rate constant obtained at the appropriate pH by *he hydronium ion or hydroxyl
ion concentration, respectively. The half-life of a chemical at a given pH and
temperature can be calculated from equation 2.5, where kn is the observed rate.
' . ' 0.693
... t1/2 = - . (2.5)
Data evaluation methods and calculations are discussed in more detail in Section
5.1. '...:' .
Excellent discussions of the hydrolysis rate laws are provided by Mabey and Mill
(1,2). ' . .
2.3 .Contributing Factors to Hydrolysis Rates
. 2.3.1 Temperature . '..''.
Water and oil baths that precisely held temperature were used when
experimentally determining rates of hydrolysis (Section 4.4). This removed the
.contribution of temperature as a variable during the actual experiments.
, '. 2.3.2 pH, B-jffcr Catalysis ' . ' .
i . . . N3S calibration standards were used to calibrate the pH meter
j before measurements. The pll was usually neasured at the temperature of analysis.
I In regions where only kr\ contributes to hydrolysis, K^ ;vi 11 decrease by a factor
f . of 10 for each unit increase in pH. Similarly .-,'here only kg contributes to
I . hydrolysis, K|, will increase by a factor of 1C) for each unit increase in pH.
i ' kft. is for the pH-independent hydrolysis rate moasureTient. Buffers (0^005-M)

v/ere set as low as possible, ..yet high enough to maintain constant pi! over the
course of the hydrolysis'determination. The compound concentration was corres-
pondingly set low, usually 10''^ M or less. '
2.3.4 Sterility ; .. " ". .
Sterile conditions vvsre maintained for all studies to prevent
microbial degradation of the chemicals (Section 4.5). . . .
2.3..B Scrption' '!'.''.
Chemicals analyzed by gas chromatography were' extracted from the
aqueous layer and glass surfaces with iso-octane. Samples analyzed by liquid
chroma tography were checked for sorption by emptying the sample container,
rinsing the container with acetcnitrile, and analyzing the acetonitrile in the
sane manner as the sample. . .

| ' 3.1 Standard Reference Compounds (SRC)
Four compounds were used as standard reference compounds, one each for
| acid and neutral, and two for base hydrolysis. The SRC hydrolysis rate constants
[ were determined before analysis of samples and interspersed with laboratory
; determination of hydrolysis rates of the compounds in Table 1. Pertinent
i information as to concentration, pH, temperature, and instrument for analysis
| is tabulated in Tables 2 through 5. The rate values for all four SRCs are in
good agreement with literature or calculated values.
3.1.1 Acid SRC . . .
DL-trans-4^Chlorostilbene oxide was selected as the SRC for acid
hydrolysis studies. Operating conditions and calculated rates are in Table 2.
The chlorine was essential for analysis by the electron capture detector.
I
I 3.1.2 Neutral SRC .
| Benzyl chloride was selected as the SRC for neutral hydrolysis
f conditions, since the rate is known to be independent of pH below 13. Also,
> the degradation rate at room temperature is fast enough to allow easy sampling.
Table 3 tabulates analytical parameters. Of particular interest is the last
j column of K^ values extrapolated from three elevated temperatures.
I. - ' ' '
I 3.1.3 Base SRC
[ .&. Methyl-2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetate (2,4-D methyl ester) served as
f the base SRC in the pH range 8 - 9.5. Table 4 contains rate values and corre-
I' spending analytical parameters. Data are reported as calculated from analytical
f . runs.
b. Lindane, not as sensitive to hydroxide ion catalysis, served as
the SRC in the pH range 9.5 to 11. Data are reported in Table 5.
3.2 Rate Studies-OSW Chemicals . .
A general description of laboratory operations will be given in the
remainder of this section. A typical hydrolysis experiment consisted of pre-
paring a spiking solution of the compound of interest, preparing buffer solutions,
transferring spiked buffer r.o individual "rate point tubes" (_5-ml Teflon
lined, screw cap, or sealed ampules), then monitoring degradation by sacrificing
individual tubes and determining percentage of the substrate remaining.

Initial hydrolysis runs ivere performed at pH 3, 7, and 11. Buffprs were
prepared at. these pils then ireasured at the temperature of the hydrolysis run.
Each run-consisted of five or six tubes. Immediate analysis of one tube estab-
lished the 100% response pea'< (T0). Analysis'Of a second tube within 3 to 6
hours gave a good estimate of sampling frequency for the"remaining tubes.
The initial, hydrolysis runs were.used to set pH and temperature condi-
tions for subsequent rate determinations. The rate determinations were normally
performed in triplicate; however, some compounds required more replicates
and some less.

4.1 Chemicals .and Solvents' . '' . .
4.1.1 Source . ' ' ' '
The LPA repositories at Research Triangle Park, NC, and Las Vegas,
''V, were the first choice for chemicals on which hydrolysis rates were measured.
Comnercial chenical companies were the second sources. The supplier of each
chemical is listed on the data sheets in the Section 5.3.
4.1.2 Identity 'and Purity -.
Stated purities are listed on the data sheets. The chemicals were
analyzed by mass spectroraetry for confirmation of the stated identity. The
generated mass spectral data are in Appendix A. FT-IR was used to characterize
three of the "second third" compounds. {Appendix 8).
4.1.3 Solvents . ' .
Solvents were "distilled in glass," Burdick and Jackson solvents
either gas chromatograph or KPLC grade, as required by the method of analysis.
4.,? pM Measurement
An Orion Research EA920 pH meter equipped with an Orion Research A310300
Ross combination oloctroJe was used for all pH measurements, national Bureau
of Standards (NRS) reference standards were usoJ to calibrate and.check the pH
i^oter. The pil meter had a stated accuracy of fQ.02 units. The temperature
compensation probe.was used for all measurements. The pi) was measured at the
temperature of the hydrolysis rate measurement and adjusted with base or acid
to ootain the
-------
4.4 Temperature Control .
Forma Scientific refrigerated and heated baths (Model 2095) were used for
temperatures in the range of'2 to 70°C (i0.02°C).. A Lauda C-20 oil bath with a
stated control accuracy of ±0.01°C and a fine control range of ±0.2°C was used
for temperatures above 68CC. Temperatures were measured with American Society
for Testing and Materials (-ASTM) thermometers, calibrated by NBS procedures
and N3S certified masters'. The .thermometers were calibrated in 0.1°C increments.
4.5 Sterile Water
Water used in the experiments was unchlorinated ground v/ater that was
first processed through a high capacity reverse osmosis unit and a deionizer
unit. This "house" deionized water was further purified by passage through a
Rarnstead Nanopure II deionizer, 4-Module unit with Pretreatment, High Capacity,
and Z-Ultrapure cartridges. Water obtained from this unit had a resistance of
greater than 16 meg ohms. This double deionized water was autoclaved for 30
min/liter and allowed to cool'before use. The sterile water was stored in a
sterile-cotton-plugged container until used. All hydrolysis runs were conducted
in screw cap tubes. Data from smear plate counts on agar indicated growth as
being less than 1 colony per milliliter through 9 days at 25°C and pH of 5, 7,
and 9. Sterility checks on the water were performed intermittently.
Buffer solutions were checked for bacterial growth. Buffer solutions,
prepared as described above, were transferred at room temperature to screw cap
test tubes. One-half were flame transferred, the other half without flaming.
A sanple (1 ml) from each tube was plated daily, for nine concurrent days on
TGF. agar. After.a 48-hour incubation, no growth was found. This confirmed
sterility. Control checks during hydrolysis runs showed no growth.
4.6 Methods of Analysis
Details of the methods of chemical analysis are listed on the data sheet
for each compound. Generally gas chromatography was the first method of choice
for four reasons: . .
1) sensitivity and specificity of detectors :
2) .solvent extraction stopped hydrolysis and allowed multiple
injection-s over extended periods of time
3) solvent extraction also lessened problems caused by compound
sorpticn-to glass .
4) direct aqueous injection of water soluble compounds that were
not amenable to other methods of analysis .
High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used extensively; ion .
chroinatography and the diode array UV-detector were used in the analysis of
sodiuor.fluoroacetate and thiourea, respectively. Hydrogen cyanide released by
the decomposition of 2-methyllactonitrile was monitored by EPA Method 335.
Linearity, of detector response in the concentration range of analysis for
each chemical was established to ensure reliable concentration versus tir.ie plots.

'. '' ' '. . . DATA ANALYSIS AND PRESENTATION
-.'.'.
5.1 ' Data Compilation Methods
Raw data'consisted of time of sampling and percentage substrate remaining.
The measured concentration at time zero was considered 100* and was the reference
point for the remaining points. The data were processed :on a Lotus 1-2-3/IBM
PC-XT'using a data entry/linear regression program. The raw and calculated
data were entered.in a notebook. Graphs were made by using persona! computers
to plot In (% remaining) vs. time and to calculate statistical values.
.- Values obtained from the linear regression program include the slope
(pseiido-f irst-ordei- rate constant), Y-intercept, variance, SD of Y-intercept,
SO of slope, and the correlation coefficient (r-). . .
5.2 Standard Reference Compound Data
.All the laboratory data on the SRCs are summarized in Tables 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Figures 1, 2, .and 3 are representative graphical presentations of hydrolysis .
data for three SRCs. Figure 4 is an Arrhenius plot for hydrolysis of benzyl
chloride at four temperatures. See 5.3.32 for lindane data and illustrative figure.
An energy of activation of 22.5 ± 1.4 Kcal/inole for benzyl chloride was calculated
from the cata associated with Figure 4. An error of 10% in the slope was
assumed. Arrhenius plots for the other SRCs yielded the following energies of
activation: . CSO (25.6 kcal/mole); 2,4-DME (9.0 ± 0.4 kcal/mole).and lindane
(15.1. t .0.5 kcal/mole). The change in the hydrolysis rate constants for benzyl
chloride and the methyl ester of 2,4-D after March 1986 illustrates how susceptible
rate determinations are to slight changes in the controlled parameters. No
plausible explanation has been found for either the increased 2 4-D.rate or the
decreased benzyl chloride rate.
5.3 Summary. Sheets for CSW Chemicals . .
A summary sheet was prepared for each chemical. The summary sheet, contains .
information pertinent to the analysis of each chemical, and includes source,
purity, and analytical method. Also included on the sheet is information on
pH, temperature, pseudo-first-order and second-order rate constants, half-lives,'
and correlation coefficients (r?). Sample identity was confirmed by mass spec-
trometry and infrared spectrometry as reported -in the Appendices. Where a litera-
ture/reference for the hydrolysis of a compound was obtained, the summary sheet
contains the second-order rate constant if applicable and first-order rate
constants at 25°C. For several of the compounds, lab data were generated in
this study to fill in gaps in the literature. . . ' .
Data from all the summary sheets were used to derive the values in T.a.b.l e
6. These values are the calculated rate constants at 25°C. The.rate constants
were assumed, to vary a factor of 10 for each 20°C change in temperature (Ref.
L, Section 1). This corresponds to an activation energy of about 20 kcal/mole.
when applicable extrapolated values (25°C) were obtained using activation
parameters. A temperature, correction was applied to all calculations invplv.ing

independent of pll, hydrolysis values from the extremes of pH (acid and/or base) .
were included when calculating the neutral hydrolysis rates reported in Table 6.
Confidence limits were calculated from the mean and standard deviation values
and are the values reported in Table 6.
, Constraints of time, personnel, bath space, and availability of instruments
.of analysis dictated that rate determinations be confined to shorter periods of
time (note the half-lives and temperatures in summary sheets). 'Ideally, decrease
in compound concentration was monitored through three half-lives (<12% remaining);
as- seen in the summary sheets, some compounds decreased <10% during the period

Go:nc;onts: Hydrolysis of alky! niVriies is a known acid or base
catalysed process. A second-order basic hydrolysis rate constant
was doti?nninod at 66°C and H5°C. Tno calculated energy of
activation (27.7 Kcdl/molo) was in good agreement with .the value
of 23.7 Kcal/niole reported by Gueison (1). The extrapolated second-
order alkaline hydrolysis rate constant (1 x !0"^'-'"'nr*l) is in good
agreement with the value measured at 25°C by Peskoff and Meyer .

1. 57-74-9 is CAS Mo. for technical chlordane
2. Zero degradation was observed for trans-chlordane during five days
at pHs of 3, 7, and 11 and at 85°C. The only degradation observed
with £j_s_-chlordane is reported above.
Comments: The two major components of technical chlordane are the cis and
trans isomers. The data above are consistent with the structures of the isomers.
cis-Chlordane (CAS No. 5103-74-2) is more susceptible to hydroxide catalyzed
delTydrohalogenation because the 1-exo, 2-exo orientation of the chlorine atoms
| facilitates the E? elimination of HC1. The trans isomer (CAS No. 5103-71-9)
has.1-exo, 2-endo orientation of the chlorine atoms and thus does not undergo
E2 elimination. Calculated activation energy for alkaline hydrolysis of cis-
chlordane is Ea = 34,966 ± 1,800 cals/mole, log A = 23.3 ± 0.10. . ; .

Comments: Smith and Fitzpatrick (1) reported the complete breakdown of diallate
at 75°C in 12N sulfuric acid and IN sodium hydroxide. Dial late contains
approximately equal amounts of the cis and t ra ns i comers. Under the much milder
conditions employed in our hydrolysis studios, the hydrolysis mechanism anc rate
under acidic and neutral conditions were essential ly the same. Hydrolysis of
the trans isomer was catalyzed by hydroxide ion while the cis isomer hyd-olysis
was retarded by a factor "of three.

*The free acid is unstable; chemical analyzed was the -lisodium salt (Nabam).
Comments: Metal salts of- ethylene-bj_s-dithiocarbamic acids can follow
at least two routas of decomposition. Route 1, favored by boiling dilute
acid, yields transient formation of the free acid with immediate decomposition
to two moles of carbon disulfide and 1 mole ethylenediarnine. Route 2 is a
slower reaction favored by-cooler dilute acid. Route 2 yields 1 mole of
ethylenethiourea, 1 mole of carbon disulfide and 1 mole of hydrolgen sulfide

Water is sufficiently acidic to proyide a very low concentration of
2-methylaziridinium ion (approx. 2 X 10~°) (1). Tne iminium ion has a pKa
of 9.61 and the free imine has a pK& of 5.38 (1). The rate constant for a ring
opening in aqueDus solutions was (7.0 ±" 0.2) X 10-3 m-jn-l at 65°C. The derived
rate and half-1'fe at 25°C are 0.008. hr"1 and 87 hr, respectively. Addition of
acids accelerates production of the aminoalcohols and/or polymerization. Bunnett

Comments: At pH 7.35 and 85°C the hydrolysis, rate is three times greater than
the rate at pH .9.65 and 85°C (pH was measured, at 85°C). S-Methyl-3-thiouracil
has two ionizable protons and hence two pKs. Thus the ionization can be written
as: .
Pk2
H2A
7.73
A2-
where a value of 7.33 (1) has been reported for pKi. The value ot pK? would be
>11.. The resistance to acid hydrolysis and the greater rate of hydrolysis at
pH 7.35 is strong evidence that the morioion (HA~) is the degraded species.
Hydrolysis is most likely mediated by attack of a molecule of water on the
9.0.
-------
rnonpanion. As the pH 15 increased, the equilibrium is shifted more to the
dianion and the rate of hydrolysis correspondingly decreases. Thus the rate at
pH 7.35 and 8.5°C-was extrapolated to pH 7 and 25°C.using the calculated.

lindane, hexachloroethane.* 1 asiocarpine, malononitrile, methylthiouracil,
thioacetanrde, thiram, methyl methacrylate, azaserine, chlorambucil, heptachlor,
and kepone. These chemicals are used.as standards for determining the "second-third"
hydrolysis rate constants. The mass spectrum of ea:h standard was determined
by either GC/MS or probe/MS. ! ' . ' .
Apparatus and conditions: Analyses were carried out with a Finnigan
Model 4500 gas chronatograph - mass spectrometer interfaced to the Finnigan
Incos Data Systen. The moss spectral matching program used the "1984 EPA/fllH
Incos Compatible Library Containing 42,197 Mass Spectra" obtained from W. L.
Budde.of EMSL-Cinn (EPA/NIH Library). The 1983 version of the bound'"EPA/NIH
.Mass Spectral Database" and the 1933 version of the "Eight Peak Index of
Mass Spectra" were also used as references.
The GC column was a DB-5 fused capillary 3Cm X 0.25mm; for most chemicals,
the temperature program was 3 min at 45°C, 45-280°C at 10°/min.' Acetonitrile,
because of its volatility, was injected directly on the column at room temperature.
Lasiocarpine, azaserine, thiram, N-(aminothioxomethyl )acetamide, l-(0-chlorophenyl.)-
thiourea,' 2,4-di thiobiuret, and 2-fluoroace.tamide .could not be analyzed by GC; they
were analyzed from a direct probe at 75-200°C.

excellent match to the standard spectrum of 0,0-diethyl-0-pyrazinyl
phosphorothioate in the EPA/NIH Library. .
2,4-Dithiobiuret: The probe mass spectrum was not in any available
database. The fragmentation pattern shows characteristics expected of
2,4-dithiobiuret. There is a/prominent molecular ion at m/z 135 with an
3.8% m/z 137 ion indicating 2 sulfur groups. A large m/z CO ion represents
a -CSNH2 group.
2-F1uoroacetamide: The probe mass spectrum was not. in any available
database. The fragmentation pattern, however, shows characteristics
expected of 2-fluoroactamide. There is a prominent molecular ion at m/z
77. The m/z 60 ion represents a loss of -OH.
Isodrin: The GC mass spectrum was an excellent match to the standard spectrum
of isodrin in the EPA/NIH Library. .
alpha-Naphthylthiourea: The compound decomposes on a GC column to 2-isothiocyanato
naphthalene!There is an excellent match to the standard spectrum of 2-isothiocyanato

Octamethylpyrophosphoramide: The GC mass spectrum .'as an excellent match to
the standard speccrum of octamethylpyrophosphoramide in the EPA/NIH Library.
Toxaphene: Toxaphene is a mixture of many compounds produced by the
chlorination of camphene. Toxaphene gives a characteristic smear when
analyzed bv GC and is best identified by this profile. The mass spectra is
not revealing, only showing a highly chlorinated family of compounds.
The GC-MS ion chromatogram of.this toxaphene standard matches the toxaphene
profile in "Analysis and GC-MS Characterization of.Toxaphene in Fish and
Water" by David L. Stall ings, EPA-600/3-76-076, August, 1976.
Acetonitrile: The GC mass spectrum was an excellent match to the standard

.nethacrylate [MM], 0,0,0-triethylester phosphorothioic acid [OP], an'd
'tn"s(2,3-dibromopropyl jrphosphate [Tris]) -wj're confirmed by their infrared
spectra. A Digilab FTS-20C Fourier transform infrared instrument with a
glowbar source and a HCT detector we re'.'used for this purpose. 'In each
case., spectra were obtained as a thin-flip; Between KBr disks. Figures Bl
and B2 are the spectra of-HM and OP, respectively. In both cases, .the
spectra :natch very well with standard icforence spectra to give acceptable
confirmation of MM and OP. . Additionally, Figure B3, which is a spectrum
of Tris, matches well vith the standard reference spectrum. There was
some concern as to whether'T'ris could possibly be the tris(l,3-dibromo-2-
propyl )phosphate isomer, for which no standard reference spectrum could be
located. This possibility was essentially eliminated by recording the
spectra of 2,3-dibromo-l-propanol. (Figure B4) and 1,3-dibromo-2-propanol
(Figure 85).- Since the C-H bands (at. 3000 and 1500 cm"-1) of the two
alcohols are. quite different, and the C-H bands of Tris closely match
those of 2,3-dibromo-l-propanol, the structure of Tris .was confirmed.
