|  |  | TECNAZENE Usage And Synthesis | 
 | Chemical Properties | beige fine crystalline powder |  | Uses | 1,2,4,5-Tetrachloro-3-nitrobenzene, is a metabolite of pentachloronitrobenzene (P237990), used as fungicide, and pesticide. |  | Definition | ChEBI: A C-nitro compound that is nitrobenzene in which the four hydrogens located ortho- and para- to the nitro group have been replaced by chlorines. A fungicide used to control dry rot, it is no longer approved for 
se within the European Union. |  | General Description | Pale yellow crystals. |  | Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. |  | Reactivity Profile | TECNAZENE will behave as a weak oxidizer, and will react with strong reducing agents including hydrides, sulfides and nitrides. |  | Health Hazard | ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: TECNAZENE may cause irritation on contact. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes. |  | Fire Hazard | Flash point data for TECNAZENE are not available. TECNAZENE is probably combustible. |  | Purification Methods | Crystallise it from aqueous EtOH or H2O. [Beilstein 5 III 617, 5 IV 728.] |
