2,4,6-Trichlorophenol, also known as TCP, phenaclor, Dowicide 2S, Dowcide 2S, omal, is a chlorinated phenol that has been used as a fungicide, herbicide, insecticide, antiseptic, [3] defoliant, and glue preservative. [4] It is a clear to yellowish crystalline solid with a strong, phenolic odor.
Trichlorophenols are produced by electrophilic halogenation of phenol with chlorine. [1] Different isomers of trichlorophenol exist according to which ring positions on the phenol contain chlorine atoms. 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol, for example, has two chlorine atoms in the ortho positions and one chlorine atom in the para position.
Chemical structure of 2-chlorophenol. A chlorophenol is any organochloride of phenol that contains one or more covalently bonded chlorine atoms. There are five basic types of chlorophenols (mono- to pentachlorophenol) and 19 different chlorophenols in total when positional isomerism is taken into account.
2,4,5-Trichlorophenol (TCP) is an organochloride with the molecular formula C 6 H 3 Cl 3 O.It has been used as a fungicide and herbicide. [2] Precursor chemical used in the production of 2,4,5-Trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) and hexachlorophene involves the intermediate production of 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (TCP) and the formation of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD, commonly ...
Bis[2,4,5-trichloro-6-(pentyloxycarbonyl)phenyl]oxalate (also known as bis(2,4,5-trichloro-6-carbopentoxyphenyl) oxalate or CPPO) is an organic compound with the formula (C 5 H 11 O 2 CC 6 HCl 3 O) 2 C 2 O 2. A white solid, it is classified as a diester of oxalic acid. It is an active ingredient for the chemiluminescence in glowsticks. [1]
The 2,4,6-trichlorophenol ester is a solid and thus easier to handle. [clarification needed] Furthermore, since trichlorophenolate is the better leaving group, the reaction will proceed faster, again producing brighter light, as compared to the phenol ester. The following colors can be produced by using different dyes:
For example, the Azotobacter sp. degrades 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) into 2,6-dichlorohydroquinone due to TCP-4-monooxygenase selectivity differences between ortho-and para-halide. These differences in regioselectivity between the species can be attributed to the specificity of the 3-dimensional enzyme structure and its hindrance from ...
Tetrachlorophenols are produced by electrophilic halogenation of phenol with chlorine. [1] Different isomers of tetrachlorophenol exist according to which ring positions on the phenol contain chlorine atoms. There are three different isomers: 2,3,4,5-Tetrachlorophenol; 2,3,4,6-Tetrachlorophenol; 2,3,5,6-Tetrachlorophenol
