1,1,1,3-Tetrachloropropane is an organic compound characterized by its four chlorine atoms attached to a three-carbon propane backbone. It is a colorless liquid with a distinctive odor, often described as sweet or chloroform-like. This compound is classified as a chlorinated hydrocarbon and is primarily used as a solvent and in chemical synthesis. Its molecular formula is C3H4Cl4, indicating a high degree of chlorination, which contributes to its chemical stability and resistance to degradation. 1,1,1,3-Tetrachloropropane is relatively dense and has a higher boiling point compared to non-chlorinated hydrocarbons, making it useful in various industrial applications. However, it is important to note that this compound can pose environmental and health risks, as chlorinated solvents are often associated with toxicity and potential carcinogenic effects. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate these risks. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is subject to regulatory scrutiny due to its potential impact on human health and the environment.

1,1,1,3-Tetrachloropropane is a chlorinated hydrocarbon that has been shown to be toxic to animals. It causes liver lesions in rats and has been shown to cause cardiac arrhythmias in dogs. 1,1,1,3-Tetrachloropropane is not an ozone depleter. 1,1,1,3-Tetrachloropropane has a low viscosity and high solubility in water. The compound can exist as three isomers: the cis form (CClCHCl), the trans form (CClCHBr) and the mixed form (CCLCHCl). The mixed form of 1,1,1,3-tetrachloropropane is more active than either of the other two forms and is more readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract into the blood stream. It also breaks down more slowly than either of its two isomers.
