CAS 74472-40-5
:2,2',3,4,6,6'-hexachlorobiphenyl
Description:
2,2',3,4,6,6'-hexachlorobiphenyl, identified by its CAS number 74472-40-5, is a member of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) family, which are synthetic organic chemicals known for their environmental persistence and potential toxicity. This compound consists of two biphenyl rings with six chlorine atoms substituted at specific positions, contributing to its stability and resistance to degradation. It is typically a solid at room temperature and exhibits low volatility. The presence of multiple chlorine atoms enhances its hydrophobicity, leading to bioaccumulation in living organisms and potential adverse effects on health and the environment. 2,2',3,4,6,6'-hexachlorobiphenyl has been studied for its endocrine-disrupting properties and potential carcinogenic effects. Due to its environmental persistence, it is classified as a persistent organic pollutant (POP) and is subject to international regulations aimed at reducing its release and exposure. Proper handling and disposal are critical to mitigate its impact on ecosystems and human health.
