Metabolite Identification
Common NamePentachlorophenol
DescriptionPentachlorophenol, also known as PCP or chlorophen, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as p-chlorophenols. These are chlorophenols carrying a iodine at the C4 position of the benzene ring. Pentachlorophenol exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Pentachlorophenol is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Pentachlorophenol is formally rated as a possible carcinogen (by IARC 2B) and is also a potentially toxic compound. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Pentachlorophenol.
