Abstract In this work, the reactions of (OH)-O-a (TM), e (aq) (-) , and SO (4) (a (TM) a') with diethyl phthalate (DEP) were investigated in aqueous solution by pulse radiolysis, and degradation efficiencies of DEP with (OH)-O-a (TM) and e (aq) (-) were evaluated in water using steady-state radiolysis as well. The absolute rate constants of (OH)-O-a (TM), e (aq) (-) , and SO (4) (a (TM) a') with DEP were determined as 2.3 x 10(9), 1.0 x 10(10), and 1.0 x 10(8) M-1 s(-1), respectively. The degradation efficiencies for the (OH)-O-a (TM) and e (aq) (-) reactions were 81 and 33 %, respectively. Transient absorption spectra were observed for the intermediate radicals produced by (OH)-O-a (TM), e (aq) (-) , and SO (4) (a (TM) a') reactions. The results suggested that e (aq) (-) transferred to the ester group, resulting in the formation of DEP radical anions. In contrast, (OH)-O-a (TM) and SO (4) (a (TM) a') added predominantly to the aromatic ring of DEP, forming the corresponding (OH)-O-a (TM) adducts. The fundamental mechanistic parameters and degradation efficiencies derived from these results were significant for evaluations and applications of advanced oxidation processes.
