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,^[1] defoliant, and glue preservative.^[2] It is a yellow solid with a strong, sweet odour. It decomposes on heating to produce toxic and corrosive fumes including hydrogen chloride and chlorine.

Health effects

2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is carcinogenic in animals, causing lymphomas, leukemia, and liver cancer via oral exposure.^[3]^[4] It is classified as Group B2 (probable human carcinogen) by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.^[4] The technical grade of this substance may contain polychlorinated dibenzodioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), and other contaminants.^[5]

Environmental effects

2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is an environmental pollutant that has been found in fresh water lakes such as the Great Lakes.^[6]
