Metabolite Identification
Common NameChlorobenzene
DescriptionChlorobenzene, also known as benzene chloride or monochlorbenzol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as chlorobenzenes. Chlorobenzenes are compounds containing one or more chlorine atoms attached to a benzene moiety. Chlorobenzene is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Chlorobenzene.
