BENZO[E]PYRENE-D12

Description:
Benzo[e]pyrene-D12 is a deuterated form of benzo[e]pyrene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) known for its potential carcinogenic properties. The "D12" designation indicates that the compound contains twelve deuterium atoms, which are isotopes of hydrogen, replacing the regular hydrogen atoms in the molecular structure. This modification is often used in research to trace the compound's behavior in biological systems or environmental studies. Benzo[e]pyrene itself is characterized by its fused ring structure, consisting of five aromatic rings, and is typically found in products of incomplete combustion, such as tobacco smoke and grilled meats. The presence of deuterium in benzo[e]pyrene-D12 can enhance its stability and alter its physical properties, such as boiling and melting points, compared to its non-deuterated counterpart. This compound is primarily utilized in scientific research, particularly in studies related to environmental chemistry, toxicology, and the mechanisms of carcinogenesis. As with other PAHs, it is important to handle benzo[e]pyrene-D12 with care due to its potential health hazards.
