Dechlorane plus
Dechlorane plus (abbrev. DDC-CO[1]) is a polychlorinated flame retardant produced by Oxychem. Its log P is 11.27±0.94.[2] It is produced by the Diels-Alder reaction of two equivalents of hexachlorocyclopentadiene with one equivalent of cyclooctadiene. The syn and anti isomer are formed in the approximate ratio of 1:3.[3][4]
- syn isomer
- anti isomer

Dechlorane plus was first found in the environment in 2006 in air around the Great Lakes.[5] Since then, its environmental occurrence has been further documented in several studies including sediments of the Great Lakes;[6] zooplankton, fish, and mussels in Lake Winnipeg and Lake Ontario;[7] air and seawater from the Arctic to Antarctica;[8] and Chinese air.[9] Modeling data indicates that Dechlorane Plus may be persistent, bioaccumulative, and subject to long-range transport and that it may be candidates for Annex D evaluation under the United Nations Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants.[10]
Dechlorane plus was added to the list of REACH Substances of Very High Concern on January 15, 2018.[11]
