1,1,2-Trichloroethane

Description:
1,1,2-Trichloroethane, with the CAS number 79-00-5, is a colorless, volatile liquid with a sweet odor. It is classified as a chlorinated hydrocarbon and is primarily used as a solvent in various industrial applications, including degreasing and as an intermediate in chemical synthesis. The molecular formula of 1,1,2-trichloroethane is C2HCl3, indicating the presence of three chlorine atoms attached to a two-carbon ethane backbone. This compound is relatively stable under normal conditions but can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, leading to the formation of hydrochloric acid and other byproducts. It has a moderate boiling point and is less dense than water, making it prone to evaporation. 1,1,2-Trichloroethane is considered hazardous; it can have adverse health effects upon inhalation or skin contact, including respiratory irritation and potential long-term effects on the liver and kidneys. Due to environmental concerns, its use has been restricted in many countries, and it is subject to regulations regarding its handling and disposal.
