Hexachlorobenzene was first known as "Julin's chloride of carbon" as it was discovered as a strange and unexpected product of impurities reacting in Julin's nitric acid factory. [9] In 1864, Hugo Müller synthesised the compound by the reaction of benzene and antimony pentachloride , he then suggested that his compound was the same as Julin's ...
Lindane, also known as gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (γ-HCH), gammaxene, Gammallin and benzene hexachloride (BHC), [3] is an organochlorine chemical and an isomer of hexachlorocyclohexane that has been used both as an agricultural insecticide and as a pharmaceutical treatment for lice and scabies.
This is a list of fungicides. These are chemical compounds which have been registered as agricultural fungicides . The names on the list are the ISO common name for the active ingredient which is formulated into the branded product sold to end-users. [ 1 ]
Hexachlorobenzene, a fungicide Index of chemical compounds with the same name This set index article lists chemical compounds articles associated with the same name.
Addition of Cl 2 destroys the aromaticity of the benzene ring, and the addition of two more Cl 2 molecules is rapid compared to the first. Hence, only thrice-dichlorinated product can be isolated from this reaction. Radical addition: C 6 H 6 + 3Cl 2 → C 6 H 6 Cl 6. Hexachlorocyclohexane isomers with more than one chlorine atom per carbon are:
PCP has been used as a herbicide, insecticide, fungicide, algaecide, and disinfectant and as an ingredient in antifouling paint. [5] Some applications were in agricultural seeds (for nonfood uses), leather, masonry, wood preservation, cooling-tower water, rope, and paper. It has previously been used in the manufacture of food packaging ...
Hexachlorophene, also known as Nabac, is an organochlorine compound that was once widely used as a disinfectant.The compound occurs as a white odorless solid, although commercial samples can be off-white and possess a slightly phenolic odor.
PeCB is a persistent organic pollutant, allowing an accumulation in the food chain. [ 1 ] [ 4 ] Consequently, pentachlorobenzene was added in 2009 to the list of chemical compounds covered by the Stockholm Convention , an international treaty which restricts the production and use of persistent organic pollutants.
