CAS 41464-39-5: 2,2′,3,5′-Tetrachlorobiphenyl
Description:2,2′,3,5′-Tetrachlorobiphenyl, with the CAS number 41464-39-5, is a chlorinated biphenyl compound belonging to the class of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). It features four chlorine atoms substituted on the biphenyl structure, specifically at the 2, 2', 3, and 5' positions. This compound is typically a colorless to light yellow solid with low solubility in water but high solubility in organic solvents, which contributes to its persistence in the environment. 2,2′,3,5′-Tetrachlorobiphenyl is known for its stability and resistance to degradation, making it a concern for environmental pollution and human health. It has been associated with various toxicological effects, including endocrine disruption and potential carcinogenicity. Due to these properties, the use of PCBs, including this compound, has been heavily regulated or banned in many countries. Analytical methods such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) are commonly employed for its detection and quantification in environmental samples.
