Abstract
Polychloro-1,3-butadienes (polyCBDs) are attracting increasing concern due to their high toxicity. However, research on multiple polyCBDs in aquatic biota is still extremely limited. In this study, a sensitive method for simultaneous determination of nine polyCBD (Cl4-Cl6) congeners, including six tetrachlorobutadiene (TeCBD) isomers, two pentachlorobutadiene (PeCBD) isomers, and hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD), in shellfish was developed based on accelerated solvent extraction (ASE), solid-phase extraction (SPE) clean-up and gas chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-QqQ-MS/MS). Low method limits of detection (MDLs) in the range 0.03-0.21 ng/g dry weight for target analytes with satisfactory recoveries (47.7 %-70.6 %) were achieved. The valid method was then applied to analyze nine polyCBDs congeners in 42 shellfish and 11 fish samples collected from markets in eight coastal cities, China. Trace HCBD was detected in 14 samples, while TeCBDs and PeCBDs were under the MDLs in all the samples, indicating little contamination of these pollutants in the marketed shellfish and fish in China. Multiple polyCBDs especially TeCBDs and PeCBDs were firstly involved in the proposed method and investigation here, which lay the groundwork for future research on the environmental behavior and exposure risks of polyCBDs in aquatic biotas.

Abstract
The mechanism of formation of benzene rings during the pyrolysis of dichloro- and trichloroethylenes has been investigated by the method of laser powered homogeneous pyrolysis coupled with product analysis by gas chromatography. Additionally, selected (co)pyrolyses between the chlorinated ethylenes, CH2Cl2, C4Cl4, C4Cl6, and C2H2 have been performed to explicitly probe the roles of 2C3 and C4/C2 reaction pairs in aromatic growth. The presence of odd-carbon products in neat C4Cl6 pyrolyses indicates that 2C3 processes are operative in these systems; however, comparison with product yields from C2HCl3 suggests that C4/C2 processes dominate most other systems. This is further evidenced by an absence of C3 and other odd-carbon species in (co)pyrolyses with dichloromethane which should seed C3-based growth. The reactions of perchlorinated C4 species C4Cl5, C4Cl3, and C4Cl4 with C2Cl2 were subsequently explored through extensive kinetic simulations of the possible reaction pathways based on previous kinetic models and the exhaustive quantum chemical investigations of our preceding work. The experimental and theoretical results strongly suggest that, at moderate temperatures, aromatic ring formation from chlorinated ethylenes normally follows a Diels-Alder coupling of C4 and C2 molecular units followed by internal shifts; the one exception is the C4Cl4 + C2Cl2 system, where steric factors lead to the formation of nonaromatic products. There is little evidence for radical-based routes in these systems.
