WHAT DOES CYCLODIENE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Hexachlorocyclopentadiene

Hexachlorocyclopentadiene, also known as C-56, is an organochlorine compound that is a precursor to several pesticides. This colourless liquid is an inexpensive reactive diene. Many of its derivatives proved to be highly controversial, as studies showed them to be persistent organic pollutants. Collectively, the pesticides derived from hexachlorocyclopentadiene are called the cyclodienes. An estimated 270,000 tons were produced until 1976, and some are still manufactured by Velsicol in the US and by Jiangsu Anpon Electrochemicals Co. in China.

Definition of cyclodiene in the English dictionary

The definition of cyclodiene in the dictionary is a group of organic insecticides, many of which are banned in the US and Europe.
