I found the field of Environmental Sciences & Ecology very interesting. Saw the article Identification of 3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol as the malodorous compound in a pollution incident in the water supply in Catalonia (NE Spain) published in 2019. Safety of 3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenol, Reprint Addresses Quintana, J (corresponding author), Aigues Barcelona, Empresa Metropolitana Gestio Cicle Integral Aigua, Gen Batet 1-7, Barcelona 08028, Spain.. The CAS is 98-17-9. Through research, I have a further understanding and discovery of 3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenol
A study of organic compounds that caused a serious taste and odor episode of water supply in two residential areas in Catalonia (N.E. Spain) was carried out. Sweet and paint/solvent odor were the main descriptors used by consumers. Some cases of sickness and nausea were also associated with drinking water consumption by the consumers. Closed-loop stripping analysis (CLSA) combined with sensory gas chromatography and gas chromatography mass spectrometry detection were used to study the problem. As a result, 3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (CAS number 98-17-9) was for the first time identified as a responsible of an odor incident in drinking water. Concentration levels of this compound were up to 17,000ng/L in groundwater and up to 600ng/L in distributed water. Odor threshold in water for 3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol was determined as 13ng/L (45 degrees C).
