Carbon Tetrachloride

Domain	Definitions
Environment	Compound consisting of one carbon atom ad four chlorine atoms, once widely used as a industrial raw material, as a solvent, and in the production of CFCs. Use as a solvent ended when it was discovered to be carcinogenic. (CC14). (references)
	CCl4 M. p. -23 ºC, b. p. 76. 5 ºC. Manufactured from CS2 plus Cl2 or by chlorination of CH4 and other hydrocarbons. In presence of H2O gives HCl and phosgene Cl2CO. Relatively toxic to the liver. The simplest member of the series of perchlorocarbons. Used as a solvent(use tends to be replaced by higher homologues and chloroethane derivatives)as a fumigant and in fire extinguishers.

Weather	A compound consisting of one carbon atom and four chlorine atoms. It is an ozone depleting substance. Carbon tetrachloride was widely used as a raw material in many industrial applications, including the production of chlorofluorocarbons, and as a solvent. Solvent use was ended in the United States when it was discovered to be carcinogenic. See ozone depleting substance. (references)
