General description

2,3-Dichloro-1-propanol belongs to the group of chloropropanols. Inhibitory effects of 2,3-dichloro-1-propanol on T cell both in vivo and in vitro is reported. Improved enantioselective resolution of (R,S)-2,3-dichloro-1-propanol to (S)-2, 3-dichloro-1-propanol by whole cells of a recombinant Escherichia coli in n-heptane-aqueous biphasic system is reported.

Application

2,3-Dichloro-1-propanol may be employed as carbon and energy supplement for the growth of Pseudomonas putida strain (MC4).

A Pseudomonas putida strain (MC4) that can utilize 2,3-dichloro-1-propanol (DCP) and several aliphatic haloacids and haloalcohols as sole carbon and energy source for growth was isolated from contaminated soil. Degradation of DCP was found to start with oxidation and concomitant

The toxicity of dichloropropanols (DCPs) was investigated by hematological and blood chemical examination. Solutions of two isomers of DCPs, 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (DC2P) and 2,3-dichloro-1-propanol (DC1P) were dissolved in saline at a concentration of 100 mg/ml and 0.1 ml of each was

2,3-Dichloro-1-propanol is more chemically stable than its isomer, 1, 3-dichloro-2-propanol, and is therefore more difficult to degrade. The isolation of bacteria capable of complete mineralization of 2, 3-dichloro-1-propanol was successful only from enrichments at high pH. The bacteria thus isolated
