Description

1,2,3-Trichloropropene is an organic compound that is used as a chemical intermediate in the production of other chemicals. It has been shown to inhibit the activity of certain enzymes and may be useful in the treatment of influenza virus infection. The chemical has also been detected at high levels in Covid-19 pandemic samples. 1,2,3-Trichloropropene is a hydrated molecule that consists of three chlorine atoms bonded to one carbon atom. This compound does not react with itself or with other molecules at room temperature. At higher temperatures (over 100 degrees Celsius), it reacts with nucleophiles such as water or alcohols to form chlorohydrins. It can also react with silver ions to form chloride complexes that are soluble in water and can be removed by washing.
1,2,3-Trichloropropene has two isomers: cis and trans. The cis isomer is more reactive than the trans isomer
