For example, Dalton designed a system of symbols to show how atoms combine to form other substances. Figure 3.2 on the next page shows several of these symbols. As you will no doubt notice, Dalton correctly predicted the formulas for carbon dioxide and sulfur trioxide, but ran into serious trouble with water, ammonia, and methane. Dalton s attempt at molecular modelling highlights a crucial limitation with his atomic model. Chemists could not use it to explain why atoms of elements combine in the ratios in which they do. This inability did not prevent chemists from pursuing their studies. It did, however, suggest the need for a more comprehensive atomic model. 

CASRN 2032-59-9 molecular formula C11H16N2O2 FW 208.26 Plant/Surface Water. Several transformation products reported by Day (1991) include 4-amino-/n-tolyl-7V-methylcarbamate (AA), 4-amino-3-methylphenol (AC), 4-formamido-/n-tolyl-TV-methylcarbamate (FA), 7V-(4-hydroxy-2-methylphenyl)-yV-methylformamide (FC), 4-methyl-formamido-/n-tolyl-7V-methylcarbamate (MFA), 4-methylamino-/n-tolyl-Wmethylcarbamate (MAA), 3-methyl-4-(methylamino)phenyl-Wmethylcarbamate (MAC), phenol, methylamine, and carbon dioxide.

The metabolites FA, AC, and MAC were detected in Canadian forests treated with aminocarb but the metabolites AA, MAA, and FC were not detected (Day, 1991). 

CASRN 17804-35-2 molecular formula C14H18N4O3 FW 290.62 Biological. Mixed cultures can grow on benomyl as the sole carbon source. It was proposed that benomyl degraded to butylamine and methyl 2-benzimidazolecarbamate, the latter undergoing further degradation to 2-aminobenzimidazole then to carbon dioxide and other products (Fuchs and deVries, 1978). 

CASRN 314-40-9 molecular formula C9Hi3BrN202 FW 261.12 Soil Metabolites tentatively identified in soil were 5-bromo-3-(3-hydroxy-l-methylpropyl)-6-methyluracil, 5-bromo-3-5ec-butyl-6-hydroxymethyluracil, 5-bromo-3-(2-hydroxy-l-methylprop-yl)-6-methyluracil, and carbon dioxide. The presence of uracil products suggests that bromacil was degraded via hydroxylation of the side chain alkyl groups. In the laboratory, 25.3% of C-bromacil degraded in soil to carbon dioxide after 9 wk but mineralization in the field was not observed. The half-life of bromacil in a silt loam was 5-6 months (Gardiner et al, 1969).

The main degradative pathway of chloramben in soil is decarboxylation and subsequent mineralization to carbon dioxide. The calculated half-lives in Ella loamy sand, Kewaunee clay, and Poygan silty clay were 120-201, 182-286, and 176-314 d, respectively (Wildung et al, 1968).

CASRN 108-43-0 molecular formula CeHsClO FW 128.56 Photolytic. Irradiation of an aqueous solution containing 3-chlorophenol and titanium dioxide with UV light (X >340 nm) resulted in the formation of chlorohydroquinone then to hydroxyhydroquinone. Identification of compounds from the oxidation of hydroxyhydroquinone to carbon dioxide were not identified because of the low concentrations (D Oliveira et al, 1990).

The rate of degradation increases with repeated applications of this fungicide. In a clay loam, the half-life was 1 wk. After the second and third applications, the half-lives were 5 and 2 d, respectively (Walker et al., 1986). 

CASRN 25311-71-1 molecular formula C15H24NO4PS FW 345.40 Soil. Rapidly degraded by microbes via oxidative desulfuration in soils forming isofenphos oxon (Abou-Assaf et al, 1986 Abou-Assaf and Coats, 1987 Somasundaram et al., 1989), isopropyl salicylate, and carbon dioxide (Somasundaram et al., 1989). The formation of isofenphos oxon is largely dependent upon the pH, moisture, and temperature of the soil. The degradation rate of isofenphos decreased with a decrease in temperature (35 °C >25 °C >15 °C), moisture content (22.5% >30% >15%), and in acidic and alkaline soils (pH 6 and 8). After isofenphos was applied to soil at a rate of 1.12 kg ai/ha, concentrations of 8.3, 7.2, 5.1, and 1.0 ppm were found after 5, 21, 43, and 69 d, respectively. Following a second application, 4.9, 1.55, 0.25, and 0.10 ppm of isofenphos were found after 5, 21, 43, and 69 d, respectively (Abou-Assaf and Coats, 1987).
