CAS 76-44-8: Heptachlor
Description:Heptachlor is an organochlorine compound primarily used as an insecticide and acaricide. It is a colorless to white crystalline solid with a characteristic odor. Heptachlor is known for its high lipophilicity, which allows it to accumulate in fatty tissues of living organisms, leading to potential bioaccumulation and biomagnification in the food chain. Its chemical structure consists of a bicyclic arrangement with multiple chlorine atoms, contributing to its stability and persistence in the environment. Heptachlor is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, which affects its environmental behavior and degradation. Due to its toxicity to aquatic life and potential human health risks, including neurotoxic effects, heptachlor has been banned or restricted in many countries. Its persistence in the environment raises concerns regarding soil and water contamination, necessitating careful management and remediation strategies in areas where it has been used. Overall, heptachlor exemplifies the challenges associated with the use of persistent organic pollutants in agriculture and pest control.
