para-Dichlorobenzene molecule
para-Dichlorobenzene. Computer model of a molecule of the chlorinated aromatic para-dichlorobenzene (PDB). It is an organic chemical, and is used as a pesticide. It primary use is in mothballs, where it is a substitute for naphthalene (see A705/079). PDB is marketed under names such as Paramoth, Para crystals, and Paracide. It is a toxic substance that can kill through volatile substance abuse. The molecule consists of two chlorine atoms attached to a benzene ring. The molecules chemical formula is C6.H4.Cl2. The atoms are shown as colour-coded spheres in this space-filled model: carbon (blue), hydrogen (gold), and chlorine (green)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated model of the para-Dichlorobenzene molecule, also known as PDB. This organic chemical is widely recognized for its use as a pesticide and is commonly found in mothballs, serving as a substitute for naphthalene. Marketed under various names such as Paramoth, Para crystals, and Paracide, PDB plays a crucial role in protecting fabrics from pesky moths. However, it's important to note that this seemingly harmless compound can be highly toxic and even fatal when abused through volatile substance inhalation. The structure of the molecule consists of two chlorine atoms bonded to a benzene ring, forming its distinct shape. Represented by color-coded spheres in this space-filled model - carbon (blue), hydrogen (gold), and chlorine (green) - the intricate arrangement highlights the complexity of this chemical compound. While offering insights into aromatic chemistry and molecular structures, this illustration reminds us of the potential dangers associated with misuse or abuse of toxic substances like PDB. It serves as a reminder that responsible handling and awareness are essential when dealing with potentially harmful compounds like paradichlorobenzene.
