Dechloran Plus (abbreviation DDC-CO ) is a chemical compound that is used as a flame retardant .
Extraction and presentation
DDC-CO is produced by means of the Diels-Alder reaction of two equivalents of hexachlorocyclopentadiene and one equivalent of 1,5-cyclooctadiene . It produced syn - and anti isomer in the ratio of about 1: 3.
use
DDC-CO and other structurally related substances are used as a substitute for Mirex (also called dechlorane ) as a flame retardant. In the electrical an average concentrations of 33 ± 11 was in a 2011 study, ppm found, confirming the presence of non DDC-CO in electronic devices.
Environmental relevance
DDC-CO has been detected in the environment in the air, soil, water, sediment and biota .
