  <class>SmallMolecule</class>
  <description>2,4-Dinitrochlorobenzene is an organic compound with the formula C6H3ClN2O4 and an average molecular weight of 202.55 g/mol. 2,4-Dinitrochlorobenzene belongs to the nitrobenzenes, a subclass of benzene and substituted derivatives within the organic compounds. This compound is identified as a member of the benzenoids superclass.

The substance is found in or released from 34 recorded sources. These sources include aquatic systems and sediments such as seawater, freshwater, surface water, and groundwater, as well as drinking water and water supply sources including tap water, bottled water, desalinated water, and drinking water. It is present in wastewater, sanitation, and biosolids, specifically in industrial wastewater, mine wastewater, wastewater treatment effluent, and unspecified wastewater. Other sources include food, food processing, and cookware—specifically processing fish, food preservation, and fermentation processes for beer—and appliances, HVAC, and refrigerants such as water heaters and water coolers. Additionally, it is associated with electrical and electronic equipment, including electrodes, electric switches, antennas, fixed capacitors, conductors or conductive bodies characterised by the conductive materials, and their manufacture, along with four other categories and five more sectors.

Recorded exposure routes for 2,4-Dinitrochlorobenzene include oral, inhalation, and touch. In terms of biological interaction, there are two recorded protein targets for this compound: Glutathione S-transferase P (GSTP1) and Methylated-DNA--protein-cysteine methyltransferase (MGMT).</description>
