Toxicity | Principal metabolite of DDTin humans and other animals. Principal long-term storage formderived from DDT in humans and other animals. Biologicalhalf-life of several years. DDE is probably related to thechronic toxic effects of DDT such as eggshell thinning. It hasbeen suggested recently that DDT, its metabolites, and otherpersistent organochlorines are possibly involved in cancer causation,particularly human breast cancer. |
Uses | A group protection reagent for primary amines; vertical cleavage reaction with other amino protection groups. |
