Effects a and d can apply in all three mechanisms, though steric effects are greatest for the E2 mechanism. Effect b does not apply in the El mechanism, and effect c does not apply in the ElcB mechanism. Groups such as Ar and C=C increase the rate by any mechanism, whether they are a or p (effect a). Electron-withdrawing groups increase the acidity when in the p position, but have little effect in the a position unless they also conjugate with the double bond. Thus Br, Cl, CN, Ts, N02, CN, and SR in the p position all increase the rate of E2 eliminations. 

Cumulative Assessment Group (CAG) A subset of chemicals selected from a common mechanism group for inclusion in a refined quantifative estimate of risk. The chemicals in the CAG, as well as their pathways/routes and pesticide uses, are judged to have a hazard and exposure potential that could result in the expression of a cumulative risk. Thus, negligible contributors are not included in quantifying the risk (USEPA, 2002).

There appears to be, as yet, no general agreement concerning the chemical parameters that control the thermal reactivities of metal carboxylates or the initial step in these reactions. The numerous kinetic studies of these salts have not led to the acceptance of any common pattern of reaction mechanisms. Groups of related reactants, selected to include diverse chemical features which may help major trends to be identified, are surveyed below.

The number of confirmed compounds is close to thirty million (2006CAS). We must estimate the heats of formation of compounds and BDEs using ab initio MO theory, density functional theory (DFT), semi-empirical methods (such as PM3 and AMI), molecular mechanics, group additivity, and others.

Inhibitors of Sterol C-IA Demethvlation. The greatest variety of fungicides in a single mechanism group used to control pathogens of plants and animals are inhibitors of sterol C-14 deraethylase, a cytochrome P-A50 enzyme. Typically, these sterol...
