Description

2,3,4-Trichloronitrobenzene is a synthetic chemical that can be found in the environment as a result of human activity. 2,3,4-Trichloronitrobenzene is used for the production of other chemicals and is also used as an intermediate in the synthesis of herbicides and pesticides. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a type of cancer that forms in white blood cells called lymphocytes. It has been shown that 2,3,4-trichloronitrobenzene is one of many carcinogens that cause CLL. The mechanism by which it causes cancer may involve the nitrosation of phenylacetonitrile to form N-nitrosodiphenylamine (NDEA). This process occurs when 2,3,4-trichloronitrobenzene reacts with sodium carbonate and phenylacetonitrile to form sodium nitrite and
