Description
1,1,1-Trichloroethane belongs to the organochlorides, a class of organohalogen compounds within the organic compounds. This exogenous liquid has the formula C2H3Cl3 and an average molecular weight of 133.40 g/mol. It serves as an industrial solvent and a polar chemical application. The compound is released from 59 recorded sources, including electrical and electronic equipment, food processing and cookware, building and construction, household cleaning and consumer products, aquatic systems and sediments, and drinking water and water supply. It is also released in polyvinyl chloride, while its presence in superabsorbent polymer remains inconclusive. Recorded exposure routes include oral, touch, and inhalation, with the latter supported by literature (PMC13303702). The compound interacts with 33 recorded protein targets. It inhibits the activity of membrane-bound enzymes such as acetylcholinesterase and binds covalently to DNA and RNA. 1,1,1-Trichloroethane inhibits Na+/K+ ATPase and Ca2+ and Mg2+ ATPase, including Sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 1 (ATP2A1), Sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2 (ATP2A2), Calcium-transporting ATPase type 2C member 1 (ATP2C1), and Sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase subunit gamma (FXYD2). This inhibition leads to the accumulation of intracellular free calcium ions, promoting the release of neurotransmitters from storage vesicles, depolarization of adjacent neurons, and propagation of stimuli throughout the central nervous system. Additionally, it antagonizes the action of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) at GABA-A receptors—including GABRA1, GABRA2, GABRA3, and GABRA4—blocking GABA-induced chloride ion uptake and causing central nervous system hyperexcitability. Finally, it causes endocrine disruption in humans by binding to and inhibiting the estrogen receptor (ESR1 and ESR2).

Toxicity Profile
Mechanism of Toxicity1,1,1-Trichloroethane is a cholinesterase or acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. A cholinesterase inhibitor (or 'anticholinesterase') suppresses the action of acetylcholinesterase. Because of its essential function, chemicals that interfere with the action of acetylcholinesterase are potent neurotoxins, causing excessive salivation and eye-watering in low doses, followed by muscle spasms and ultimately death. Nerve gases and many substances used in insecticides have been shown to act by binding a serine in the active site of acetylcholine esterase, inhibiting the enzyme completely. Acetylcholine esterase breaks down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is released at nerve and muscle junctions, in order to allow the muscle or organ to relax. The result of acetylcholine esterase inhibition is that acetylcholine builds up and continues to act so that any nerve impulses are continually transmitted and muscle contractions do not stop. Among the most common acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are phosphorus-based compounds, which are designed to bind to the active site of the enzyme. The structural requirements are a phosphorus atom bearing two lipophilic groups, a leaving group (such as a halide or thiocyanate), and a terminal oxygen.
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)3, not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans. (19)
Minimum Risk LevelAcute Inhalation: 2 ppm (16) Intermediate Inhalation: 0.7 ppm (Gerbil) (16) Intermediate Oral: 20 mg/kg/day (Mouse) (16)
SymptomsSymptoms include cough, sore throat, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, ataxia, unconsciousness. Dry skin and redness follow dermal exposure, while nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhoea follw ingestion. (18)
TreatmentIf the compound has been ingested, rapid gastric lavage should be performed using 5% sodium bicarbonate. For skin contact, the skin should be washed with soap and water. If the compound has entered the eyes, they should be washed with large quantities of isotonic saline or water. In serious cases, atropine and/or pralidoxime should be administered. Anti-cholinergic drugs work to counteract the effects of excess acetylcholine and reactivate AChE. Atropine can be used as an antidote in conjunction with pralidoxime or other pyridinium oximes (such as trimedoxime or obidoxime), though the use of '-oximes' has been found to be of no benefit, or possibly harmful, in at least two meta-analyses. Atropine is a muscarinic antagonist, and thus blocks the action of acetylcholine peripherally.
