CAS 319-85-7: β-Hexachlorocyclohexane
Description:β-Hexachlorocyclohexane, also known as β-HCH, is a chlorinated hydrocarbon that is a derivative of cyclohexane. It is one of the isomers of hexachlorocyclohexane, which was historically used as a pesticide and insecticide. This compound is characterized by its high degree of chlorination, which contributes to its stability and persistence in the environment. β-HCH is typically a white crystalline solid with low solubility in water but is more soluble in organic solvents. It has a relatively low vapor pressure, indicating that it does not readily evaporate into the atmosphere. Due to its chemical structure, β-HCH can bioaccumulate in living organisms, leading to potential ecological and health concerns. It is classified as a persistent organic pollutant (POP) and has been subject to regulatory scrutiny due to its toxic effects on wildlife and humans. As a result, its use has been restricted or banned in many countries. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate its environmental impact.
