Details on transformation products:

In all three soils only one metabolite was formed in significant amounts representing
metabolite 3-(difluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid as was confirmed by mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). 3-(difluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid
already appeared within 3 days of incubation. It quickly increased to maximum amounts of
67.4-76.0% TAR within 30 days, followed by a constant decrease to 44.3-59.2% TAR at the
end of the incubation period.
