δ-Hexachlorocyclohexane

Description:
δ-Hexachlorocyclohexane, also known as delta-hexachlorocyclohexane or simply delta-HCH, is a chlorinated hydrocarbon that belongs to the family of hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCH). It is a colorless to white crystalline solid with a characteristic odor. This compound is one of the isomers of hexachlorocyclohexane, which was historically used as an insecticide and pesticide. δ-HCH is known for its persistence in the environment and potential bioaccumulation in living organisms, raising concerns regarding its ecological and health impacts. It exhibits low solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents, which facilitates its movement through soil and water systems. The compound has been associated with various toxicological effects, including neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption, leading to regulatory restrictions in many countries. Due to its environmental persistence and potential health risks, δ-HCH is subject to monitoring and regulation under various environmental protection laws.
