Dodecane,1,1,1,3,11,12-hexachloro-

Description:

Dodecane, 1,1,1,3,11,12-hexachloro- is a chlorinated hydrocarbon characterized by the presence of six chlorine atoms attached to a dodecane backbone, which consists of twelve carbon atoms. This compound is part of a larger class of chemicals known as chlorinated alkanes, which are often used in industrial applications, including as solvents, refrigerants, and in the production of other chemicals. The presence of multiple chlorine atoms significantly alters the physical and chemical properties of the dodecane structure, typically increasing its density and boiling point compared to non-chlorinated dodecanes. Additionally, chlorinated compounds can exhibit varying degrees of environmental persistence and toxicity, raising concerns regarding their ecological impact and potential health risks. As with many chlorinated hydrocarbons, proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate any adverse effects on human health and the environment. Safety data sheets and regulatory guidelines should be consulted for specific information regarding its use and hazards.
