2,2',3,5,6-pentachlorobiphenyl

Description:
2,2',3,5,6-pentachlorobiphenyl, with the CAS number 73575-56-1, is a member of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) family, which are synthetic organic chemicals known for their environmental persistence and potential toxicity. This compound features five chlorine atoms substituted on a biphenyl structure, specifically at the 2, 2', 3, 5, and 6 positions. Its physical properties include a high melting point and low solubility in water, making it more soluble in organic solvents. 2,2',3,5,6-pentachlorobiphenyl is characterized by its stability and resistance to degradation, which contributes to its accumulation in the environment and living organisms. Due to its potential for bioaccumulation and associated health risks, including endocrine disruption and carcinogenic effects, its use has been heavily regulated or banned in many countries. Analytical methods such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) are commonly employed to detect and quantify this compound in environmental samples.
