• Beschreibung

  Pentachlorophenol is a restricted use pesticide and is used industrially as a wood preservative for utility poles, railroad ties, and wharf pilings. Pentachlorophenol was widely used as wood preservative until 1987 when its use was restricted to certified applicators. Pentachlorophenol is considered a probable human carcinogen and exposure to high levels can also have other health risks.
  Pentachlorophenol is a synthetic substance, made from other chemicals, and does not occur naturally in the environment. It is made by only one company in the United States. At one time, it was one of the most widely used biocides in the United States. Since 1984, the purchase and use of pentachlorophenol has been restricted to certified applicators. It is no longer available to the general public. Application of pentachlorophenol in the home as an herbicide and pesticide accounted for only 3% of its consumption in the 1970s. Before use restrictions, pentachlorophenol was widely used as a wood preservative. It is now used industrially as a wood preservative for power line poles, cross arms, fence posts, and the like. Pure pentachlorophenol exists as colorless crystals. It has a very sharp characteristic phenolic smell when hot but very little odor at room temperature. Most people can begin to smell pentachlorophenol in water at less than 12 parts pentachlorophenol per million parts of water (ppm). Impure pentachlorophenol (the form usually found at hazardous waste sites) is dark gray to brown and exists as dust, beads, or flakes. Pentachlorophenol can be found in two forms: pentachlorophenol itself or as the sodium salt of pentachlorophenol. The sodium salt dissolves easily in water, but pentachlorophenol does not. These two forms have some different physical properties, but are expected to have similar toxic effects. Humans are generally exposed to technical-grade pentachlorophenol, which usually contains such toxic impurities as polychlorinated dibenzo- p-dioxins and dibenzofurans.

• Chemische Eigenschaften

  Pentachlorophenol is a colorless to white, crystalline solid. It has a benzene-like odor; pungent when hot. The Odor Threshold in water is 1600 μg/L and the taste threshold in water is 30 μg/L.

• Physikalische Eigenschaften

  White flakes or needles with a phenolic odor. At 40 °C, the average odor threshold concentration and the lowest concentration at which an odor was detected were 23 and 9.3 μg/L, respectively. At 25 °C, the lowest concentration at which a taste was detected was 8 μg/L (Young et al., 1996).

• Verwenden

  Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is used for termite control, asa defoliant, and in the preservation of wood and wood products. It is an indoor air pollutant. It has been detected in timbers in the ppm range, causing contamination of air, surfaces, and materials in the homes. Its concentrations in blood samples have been reported in the range of sub-ppb to 110 μ/kg (Ruh et al. 1984). It has been detected in flue gas at 760–870°C (1400–1598°F) exit temperature from an incinerator at a concentration of 1.033 mg/m³ (Guinivan et al. 1985). The incinerator burned pentachlorophenol-treated wooden ammunition boxes and there was no afterburning. Methyl ethers of pentachlorophenol—pentachloroanisole and tetrachlorohydroquinone dimethyl ether —formed from microbial methylation of pentachlorophenol have been identified in the pg/m³ range in marine air samples from both the northern and southern hemispheres (Atlas et al. 1986)..

• Verwenden

• Health Hazard

  Dust or vapor irritates skin and mucous membranes, causing coughing and sneezing. Ingestion causes loss of appetite, respiratory difficulties, anesthesia, sweating, coma. Overexposure can cause death.

• Health Hazard

  Pentachlorophenol is a severe acute toxicant by ingestion and dermal penetration. The compound and its alkali salts can produce local and systemic effects. The symptoms of acute toxicity are headache, dizziness, sweating, nausea, vomiting, dyspnea, chest pain, weakness, fever, collapse, convulsions, and heart failure. Inhalation of its dusts or vapors can cause irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, and coughing and sneezing. There is no evidence of chronic poisoning or any cumulative effects.
  LD50 value, oral (mice): 117 mg/kg
  LD50 value, skin (rats): 96 mg/kg Subacute toxicity studies on rats orally administered pentachlorophenol at a dose of 0.2 mmol/kg/day for 28 days showed no effect on growth. However, this treatment induced cell alterations in liver and changes in relative liver weights (Renner et al. 1987).Fathead minnows exposed to 8–130 g/L of pentachlorophenol for 90 days experienced no adverse effects on their survival, growth, or bone development (Hamilton et al. 1986). Fathead minnows exposed to 8–130 g/L of pentachlorophenol for 90 days experienced no adverse effects on their survival, growth, or bone development (Hamilton et al. 1986). McKim and associates (1986) have conducted aquatic toxicokinetic studies using 14C-labeled pentachlorophenol in rainbow trouts. At sublethal doses and over its 65hour half-life period, about 50% was eliminated over the gills, 30% in the feces and bile, and 20% in the urine. It was found that pentachlorophenol and its metabolites were rapidly eliminated from the bodies of fish .McKim and associates (1986) have conducted aquatic toxicokinetic studies using 14C-labeled pentachlorophenol in rainbow trouts.

• mögliche Exposition

  Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is a commercially produced bactericide, fungicide, and slimicide used primarily for the preservation of wood, wood products; and other materials. As a chlorinated hydrocarbon, its biological properties have also resulted in its use as an herbicide, and molluscicide. Two groups can be expected to encounter the largest exposures. One involves the small number of employees involved in the manufacture of PCP. All of these are presently under industrial health surveillance programs. The second and larger group are the formulators and wood theaters. Exposure, hygiene and industrial health practices can be expected to vary from the small theaters to the larger companies. The principal use as a wood preservative results in both point source water contamination at manufacturing and wood preservation sites and, conceivably, nonpoint source water contamination through runoff wherever there are PCP-treated lumber products exposing PCP to soil

• Carcinogenicity

  The IARC has determined that there is limited evidence for carcinogenicity in humans and sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals.

• Environmental Fate

  Biological. Under aerobic conditions, microbes in estuarine water partially dechlorinated pentachlorophenol to trichlorophenol (Hwang et al., 1986). The disappearance of
  pentachlorophenol was studied in four aquaria with and without mud under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Potential biological and/or chemical products identified include pentachloroanisole, 2,3,4,5-, 2,3,4,6- and 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorophenol (Boyle et al.,
  Pentachlorophenol degraded in anaerobic sludge to 3,4,5-trichlorophenol which was further reduced to 3,5-dichlorophenol (Mikesell and Boyd, 1985). In activated sludge, only 0.2% of the applied amount was mineralized to carbon dioxide after 5 days (Freitag
  Pentachlorophenol was statically incubated in the dark at 25°C with yeast extract and settled domestic wastewater inoculum. Significant biooxidation was observed but with a gradual adaptation over a 14-day period to achieve complete degradation at 5 mg/L substrate cultures. At a concentration of 10 mg/L, it took 28 days for pentachlorophenol to degrade completely (Tabak et al., 1981).
  Melcer and Bedford (1988) studied the fate of pentachlorophenol in municipal activated sludge reactor systems that were operated at solids retention times of 10 to 20 days and hydraulic retention times of 120 days. Under these conditions, pentachloropheno

• Stoffwechselwegen

  The insecticidal, antimicrobial and fungicidal properties of pentachlorophenol were discovered some time ago and the compound was first used in the 1930s for wood preservation and treatment. This and various industrial uses and its herbicidal and molluscicidal properties have led to its widespread use. Many countries have banned the use of pentachlorophenol as a wood preservative. Its main uses are now in cooling towers, paper mills and drilling muds (Litchfield and Rao, 1998). The compound has become distributed in various ecosystems, including those close to man’s living space. It is volatile and it may be absorbed via ingestion, inhalation or skin contact.
  There exists a very large literature on the toxicology, metabolism, persistence and environmental effects and fate of pentachlorophenol, with well over 500 papers published in the last 30 years. Pentachlorophenol is rapidly and completely decomposed in sunlight; it is biodegraded in soil and plants and it is metabolised in animals. Pathways include dechlorination, methylation, oxidation, conjugation with sugars and sulfate and ring scission. The environmental fate and metabolism of pentachlorophenol were reviewed in 1986 by Engelhardt et al. (1986) and Renner and Muecke (1986). The pathways reported below are largely taken from these papers which are supported by more than 120 references. Other selected papers which cover important aspects are also quoted. The microbial degradation of the compound, particularly in relation to waste clean-up, has been reviewed recently (Litchfield and Rao, 1998).

• Stoffwechsel

  Pentachlorophenol was metabolized in rats by conjugation with glucuronic acid and eliminated as the glucuronide. P450 catalyzed oxidative dechlorination also occurred to form tetrachlorohydroquinone, and this was conjugated to form a monoglucuronide representing 27% of the dose administered. Other metabolites have been reported, including isomeric tetrachlorophenols, tetrachlorocatechol and tetrachlororesorcinol. Trace amounts of benzoquinones were also noted. Metabolites in female rats were tetrachloromonophenols, diphenols, and hydroquinones.

• Toxicity evaluation

  The toxicology has been addressed in a recent risk assessment (119). Acutely, pentachlorophenol was reported to have LD₅₀ values in the rat of 12 mg/kg (inhalation) and 146 mg/kg (M)–175 mg/kg (F) by oral gavage. More detailed studies of the toxicology of pentachlorophenol have been compromised by the toxicity of impurities present in most of the earlier samples used in the evaluation process.Although a number of toxicity studies have been conducted with both known impurities and TCHQ, it is often difficult to know whether animal experiments are valid for human health risk assessment. Nevertheless, it appears that the main target organ of purified TCP in animals is the liver.
  This toxicity was manifested as liver inflammation, increased relative weight, and increased serum alkaline phosphatase. The estimated chronic NOEL in the dog for these effects was 0.15 mg/kg/day, from a 1-year study, based on a LOEL of 1.5 mg/kg/day. In the rat, a significantly increased incidence of mesotheliomas (p<0.05) and nasal carcinomas in males was reported at the highest dose tested, ～60 mg/kg/day.

• Degradation

  Pentachlorophenol has the typical weak acidic properties of a phenol, readily forming the sodium salt. At physiological pH a major proportion is ionised and the metabolism (but not necessarily the mobility and absorption) of pentachlorophenol and its sodium salt should be very similar. The laurate ester, being lipophilic, is absorbed more readily than the phenate ion and it is also more volatile. However, the ester should be readily hydrolysed in dilute base to pentachlorophenol and lauric acid and by estersases in vivo to the same products. Thus the metabolism of the three forms may be considered together.
  Pentachlorophenol is rapidly degraded under conditions of aqueous photolysis in W light and sunlight (Engelhardt et al., 1986). Products detected (Scheme 1) include the reductive dechlorination products 2,3,4,6- and 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorophenol (2 and 3) and trichlorophenols. Ring chlorine atoms were displaced by hydroxyl groups to afford 2,3,5,6-tetrachlorohydroquinone (4), tetrachlorocatechol (5) and tetrachlororesorcinol( 6). The hydroquinone (4) was very rapidly decomposed in air. Irradiation of each of 4, 5 and 6 afforded trichlorobenzenediols, trichloroquinones and 2,3-dichloromaleic acid (7).
  Hydroquinone 4 oxidised in the dark (and in light) to 2,3,5,6- tetrachloro-l,4-benzoquinone (8), the 2-hydroxy analogue (9), the dichlorohydroxybenzoquinone (10) and the maleic acid (7). The latter eventually affords CO₂ and HCl.
  Exposure of an aqueous solution of the sodium salt to sunlight gave small amounts of octachlorodibenzodioxin but none of the extremely toxic 2,3,7,8-tetrachloro derivative could be detected. Much of the original work on the photolysis of pentachlorophenol was reported by Wong and Crosby (1978).
