Fluoranthene

Description:
Fluoranthene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) characterized by its fused ring structure, consisting of four benzene rings. It is a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and has a melting point that typically falls within a specific range. Fluoranthene is known for its relatively low solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents such as benzene and toluene. It has a distinct aromatic odor and is often found in coal tar and as a byproduct of incomplete combustion of organic materials. Fluoranthene is of interest in environmental chemistry due to its persistence in the environment and potential carcinogenic properties. It can be formed from various sources, including vehicle emissions and industrial processes. In terms of reactivity, fluoranthene can undergo various chemical transformations, including oxidation and photodegradation. Its presence in the environment is monitored due to its implications for human health and ecological systems, making it a subject of study in toxicology and environmental science.
