Abstract

Abstract Purified pentachlorophenol is recovered in good yield by distilling the commercially available grade in the presence of a high boiling amine or alkanolamine under reduced pressure and preferably after the starting pentachlorophenol has been exposed to moisture. The purified product is nearly colorless and nonblooming and it is essentially free of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and phenoxy-phenols.
