2,2,2-Trichloroethanol is an organic compound related to ethanol, except the hydrogen atoms at position 2 are replaced with chlorine atoms. In humans, its pharmacological effects are similar to those of chloral hydrate: it is used as a sedative or a hypnotic."The Merck Index", 13th Edition.] The hypnotic drug triclofos (2,2,2-trichloroethyl phosphate) is metabolized "in vivo" to 2,2,2-trichloroethanol. Chronic exposure may result in kidney and liver damage."The Merck Index", 12th Edition.]
