1,3,5-Trichloro-2-(chloromethyl)benzene

Description:

1,3,5-Trichloro-2-(chloromethyl)benzene, with the CAS number 17293-03-7, is an aromatic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with three chlorine atoms and a chloromethyl group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is known for its relatively high density and low solubility in water, making it more soluble in organic solvents. The presence of multiple chlorine atoms contributes to its chemical stability and potential reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Due to its chlorinated nature, it may exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence, necessitating careful handling and disposal. This compound is often used in chemical synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various industrial chemicals. Safety precautions are essential when working with this substance, as it can pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact.

1,3,5-Trichloro-2-(chloromethyl)benzene (TCMB) is a chemical compound that inhibits the synthesis of proteins and is used in cancer therapy. TCMB has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis by binding to the polymerase chain reaction enzyme transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. It also inhibits the activity of enzymes involved in lipid metabolism, such as lipases and cholesterol esterases. The serum bilirubin levels were found to be lower in mice treated with TCMB than in those not treated with TCMB. This may be due to the ability of this drug to inhibit the enzyme fatty acid synthase, which is responsible for synthesizing fatty acids. TCMB has been shown to induce apoptosis in bladder cells, which may be due to its inhibition of DNA synthesis and repair.
