CAS 12408-10-5
:Tetrachlorobenzene
Description:
Tetrachlorobenzene, with the CAS number 12408-10-5, is a chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbon characterized by its four chlorine atoms substituted on a benzene ring. It exists in several isomeric forms, with 1,2,3,4-tetrachlorobenzene being the most common. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, aromatic odor. It is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various industrial applications, including as a solvent and in the synthesis of other chemicals. Tetrachlorobenzene is known for its stability and resistance to degradation, which raises environmental concerns regarding its persistence and potential bioaccumulation. It is classified as a hazardous substance, and exposure can occur through inhalation, skin contact, or ingestion, leading to potential health risks such as liver and kidney damage. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate its environmental impact and health hazards.
