Dicofol is an organochlorine pesticide that is chemically related to DDT. Dicofol is a miticide that is very effective against red spider mite.
One of the intermediates used in its production is DDT. This has caused criticism by many environmentalists; however, the World Health Organization classifies dicofol as a Level II, "moderately hazardous" pesticide. It is known to be harmful to aquatic animals, and can cause eggshell thinning in various species of birds.
Dicofol is structurally similar to DDT. It differs from DDT by the replacement of the hydrogen (H) on C-1 by a hydroxyl (OH) functional group. One of the intermediates used in its production is DDT.
Dicofol is usually synthesized from technical DDT. During the synthesis, DDT is first chlorinated to an intermediate, Cl-DDT, followed by hydrolyzing to dicofol.After the synthesis reaction, DDT and Cl-DDT may remain in the dicofol product as impurities.
It takes a while but I know in time you'll come 'round
again
The symptom of the cycle that you're on
There's a heart and there's a hope for the light again
I don't know just where you're going wrong
It might seem fine to take a fall, if you're inclined
to break it all
Tell me no lies, you've said 'em all
You're just inclined to break it all
Throw it all against the wall, watch where the pieces
fall
Never wanted to lose it all
You're just inclined to break it all
Break it up!
Break it up!
Break it up!
Break it up!
Just inclined to break it all
Break it up!
(Tell me the lies, you've said 'em all)
(It's my faith thrown against the wall)
Break it up!
(Tell me the lies, you've said 'em all)
(It's my faith thrown against the wall)
Break it up!
(Tell me the lies, you've said 'em all)
(It's my faith thrown against the wall)
Break it up!
(Tell me the lies, you've said 'em all)
(It's my faith thrown against the wall)
