General description

3-Chlorobiphenyl is a chlorinated biphenyl compound, which can be prepared, via phase transfer Gomberg-Bachmann-Hey reaction. It involves the condensation of 3-chlorobenzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate with 18-crown-6 in the presence of potassium acetate.
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a class of highly toxic pollutants found in various environmental matrices and food products. They find a variety of applications as flame retardants, plasticizers, dielectric and heat transfer fluids, etc.

Application

PCB No 1 may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in natural matrices using an on-line system for subcritical water extraction combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Incineration is commonly used to destroy polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) wastes, but this method of treatment is not ideal for all mixed liquid wastes, especially those containing radioactive materials. Therefore, other remediation technologies are needed to efficiently treat these waste forms.
