abstract = {4-Nonylphenols (NPs) are very important environmentally
relevant substances. They are persistent, toxic,
endocrine-disrupting chemicals that are priority hazardous
substances of the EU Water Framework Directive. NPs are
degradation products of 4-nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEs), a
widely used group of nonionic surfactants. The technical
synthesis of NP leads to a complex mixture of NPs consisting
of isomeric compounds that have different branched nonyl
side chains. It has recently become clear that an
isomer-specific view is absolutely necessary when it comes
to correctly evaluating the biological effects of NPs and
their behavior in the environment, including degradation
processes. To rationalize the identification of individual
NP isomers in scientific studies, we have developed a
numbering system for all possible NP isomers that follows
the IUPAC rules of substituent characterization in
alkylphenols. The 211 possible constitutional isomers of NP
are numbered according to a hierarchical and logical system.
In the future, multidimensional coupling systems--for
example GCxGC-TOF-MS--will be needed to study these highly
complex class of substances.},
