Abstract from DBPedia
    An organochloride, organochlorine compound, chlorocarbon, or chlorinated hydrocarbon is an organic compound containing at least one covalently bonded atom of chlorine. The chloroalkane class (alkanes with one or more hydrogens substituted by chlorine) provides common examples. The wide structural variety and divergent chemical properties of organochlorides lead to a broad range of names, applications, and properties. Organochlorine compounds have wide use in many applications, though some are of profound environmental concern, with TCDD being one of the most notorious.

     有機塩素化合物(ゆうきえんそかごうぶつ、organochlorine compound)または有機塩化物(ゆうきえんかぶつ、organochloride)は、分子内に塩素原子を含む有機化合物である。構造や化学的性質の多様性のため、その用途は多岐に渡る。有機塩素化合物は基本的には水と混ざらず、また、塩素原子の重さのために水より密度が高くなる。
