General Description
Epichlorohydrin (abbreviated ECH) is an organochlorine compound and an epoxide. Despite its name it is not a halohydrin. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent garlic-like odor moderately soluble in water but miscible with most polar organic solvents. It is a chiral molecule generally existing as a racemic mixture of right-handed and left-handed enantiomers. Epichlorohydrin is a highly reactive compound and is used in the production of glycerol plastics epoxy glues and resins and elastomers. In contact with water epichlorohydrin hydrolyzes to 3-MCPD a carcinogen found in food.
