CAS 203-80-5
:phenalene
Description:
Phenalene, with the CAS number 203-80-5, is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) characterized by its unique structure, which consists of a fused ring system. It features a total of five fused benzene rings, forming a planar, aromatic compound. Phenalene is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is known for its relatively high stability due to the resonance stabilization provided by its conjugated π-electron system. The compound is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, which is common for many PAHs. Phenalene exhibits fluorescence and has been studied for its potential applications in organic electronics and materials science. However, like many PAHs, it may pose environmental and health risks, as some derivatives are known to be carcinogenic. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate any potential hazards associated with its use. Overall, phenalene serves as an interesting subject of study in both organic chemistry and materials science due to its unique properties and structural characteristics.
