CAS 118-74-1: Hexachlorobenzene

Description: Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) is a chlorinated aromatic compound characterized by its six chlorine atoms attached to a benzene ring. It appears as a white crystalline solid with a high melting point and low solubility in water, but it is soluble in organic solvents. HCB is known for its stability and persistence in the environment, leading to bioaccumulation in living organisms. It has been used historically as a pesticide, fungicide, and in the production of other chemicals, although its use has been restricted or banned in many countries due to its toxicological effects. Hexachlorobenzene is classified as a probable human carcinogen and can cause various health issues, including liver damage and endocrine disruption. Its environmental impact is significant, as it can persist in soil and sediments, leading to long-term ecological consequences. Monitoring and remediation efforts are crucial to mitigate its presence in contaminated sites.
