2,3,4,5-Tetrachlorophenol is a chemical compound that belongs to the family of chlorophenols. It is derived from phenol by the substitution of four chlorine atoms on the aromatic ring. It is primarily used as a wood preservative and fungicide. Due to its toxic and persistent nature, it is regulated and restricted in many countries.
