Persulfate-based advanced oxidation process has been proven to be a promising method for the toxic pesticide chlorpyrifos (CPY) degradation in wastewater treatment. However, due limitation short-lived intermediates detection, comprehensive understanding pathway remains unclear. To address this issue, density functional theory was used analyze mechanism of CPY at M06-2X/6-311++G(3df,3pd)//M06-2X/6-31+G(d,p) level, and computational toxicology methods were employed explore toxicity its products. Results show that hydroxyl radicals (·OH) sulfate (SO4•−) initiate reactions by adding P=S bond abstracting H atom on ethyl group, rather than undergoing α-elimination pyridine ring persulfate process. Moreover, addition products attracted degraded breaking P–O bond, while abstraction through dealkylation reactions. The transformation products, including 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridynol, O,O-diethyl phosphorothioate, oxon, acetaldehyde, obtained theoretical calculations have detected previous experimental studies. reaction rate constants with ·OH SO4•− 6.32 × 108 9.14 M−1·s−1 room temperature, respectively, which consistent values 4.42 109 4.5 M−1 s−1. Toxicity evaluation results indicated acute chronic aquatic organisms gradually decreased during some still possess or highly levels, may pose risks human health. These research findings contribute behavior risk assessment practical
