Uses
A toxic polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin detected in domestic meat and poultry.
General Description
Colorless crystals or white crystalline solid.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
Simple aromatic halogenated organic compounds, such as 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9-OCTACHLORODIBENZO-P-DIOXIN, are very unreactive. Reactivity generally decreases with increased degree of substitution of halogen for hydrogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides.
Fire Hazard
Flash point data for 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9-OCTACHLORODIBENZO-P-DIOXIN are not available; however, 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9-OCTACHLORODIBENZO-P-DIOXIN is probably combustible.
Definition
ChEBI: 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9-Octachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is a polychlorinated dibenzodioxine.
