C2H3Cl3133.42,2,2-Trichloroethane-1,1-diol
Chloral Hydrate
Chloral hydrate was first synthesised in 1832 and is a sleep inducing depressant. Its effect is fast (30 minutes) and it will induce sleep in about an hour. A solution of chloral hydrate and alcohol constituted the infamous 'knockout drops' or 'Mickey Finn.'
