The degradation of organic contaminants in aquatic systems has raised immense attention worldwide, and the second-order rate constant ([Formula: see text]) of water pollutants oxidized by sulfate radical anion is an important index for assessing the degradation efficiency of organics. Herein, a new norm mathematical formula is defined. Based on this, four new descriptors are proposed and a QSPR model is developed for predicting [Formula: see text] using 30 families of emerging organic pollutants in water. The statistical results fully prove that this model has good fitting effect and stability with R² of 0.8862, Q²LOO of 0.8466, and Q²₅₋fₒₗd of 0.8329, respectively. The validation results including cross validation, applicability domain analysis, and model comparison show that this model has good robustness, predictive performance, and reliability. These decent results indicate that the new norm mathematical formula is effective in calculating descriptors and the norm indexes have a great application for evaluating the transformation fate of organic pollutants by sulfate radical in aquatic systems.
