Details
Dichloroacetic acid , sometimes called bichloroacetic acid, is the chemical compound with formula CHCl ₂COOH. It is an acid, an analogue of acetic acid, in which 2 of the 3 hydrogen atoms of the methyl group have been replaced by chlorine atoms. Like the other chloroacetic acids, it has various practical applications. Although preliminary studies found that DCA can slow the growth of certain tumors in animal studies and in vitro studies, as of 2012 insufficient evidence supported the use of DCA for cancer treatment . Both DCA and TCA are used for cosmetic treatments (such as chemical peels and tattoo removal) and as topical medication for the chemoablation of warts , including genital warts. It can kill normal cells as well.
Dichloroacetic acid is an organochlorine compound comprising acetic acid carrying two chloro substituents at the 2-position. It occurs in nature in seaweed, Asparagopsis taxiformis. It has a role as an astringent and a marine metabolite. It is a monocarboxylic acid and an organochlorine compound.
Dichloroacetic acid is used as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of organic materials, as an ingredient in pharmaceuticals and medicines, as a topical astringent, and as a fungicide.
