1,1,1-Trichloroethane; Trichloroethylene
1,1,2-Trichloroethane, vinyl trichloride or 1,1,2-TCA, is an organochloride solvent with the molecular formula C2H3Cl3 and the structural formula CH2Cl\sCHCl2. It is a colourless, sweet-smelling liquid that does not dissolve in water, but is soluble in most organic solvents. It is an isomer of 1,1,1-trichloroethane, and a byproduct of its manufacture.
It is used as a solvent and as an intermediate in the synthesis of 1,1-dichloroethylene.Toxicological profile for 1,1,2-trichloroethane Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) March 2021 https://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/toxprofiles/tp148.pdf 2023-08-23 2022-03-05 https://web.archive.org/web/20220305233413/https://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/toxprofiles/tp148.pdf live
