Transformation products (TPs) of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (DMH), a highly toxic and reactive rocket fuel, are of huge fundamental and practical interest to scientists working in the field of chemical transformations in the environment. Due to the high reactivity of 1,1-DMH, its transformation occurs in a series of chemical reactions. This chapter describes experimental results on the identification and fate of TPs of 1,1-DMH in environmental objects (soil and water). It presents a review of the most recent data on the TPs of 1,1-DMH, including their identification, quantitative determination, distribution and fate in the environment. Analytical methods for determination of these compounds in the environmental samples are presented. The chapter also presents the results of identification of 1,1-DMH TPs obtained by analyses of soil samples from three fall sites.
