2,4,6-TRICHLOROANISOLE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white or off-white fibrous powder. Insoluble in water; soluble in benzene, methanol, and dioxane; gradually sublimes at room temperature.

Uses

Dyeing auxiliary for polyester fabrics.

Uses

2,4,6-Trichloroanisole is used in method for reducing odor in room in remodeling work by removing causative substances.

Definition

ChEBI: A monomethoxybenzene that is 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene in which one of the hydrogens is replaced by a methoxy group.

General Description

2,4,6-Trichloroanisole (TCA) is responsible for the cork taint in wines. TCA has been quantitated in bark cork stoppers by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) method. Degradation of TCA catalyzed by raw bauxite via ozonation in water has been investigated.
