Picene

Description:
Picene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) characterized by its structure, which consists of five fused benzene rings arranged in a linear configuration. Its chemical formula is C18H12, and it is known for its planar structure, which contributes to its unique electronic properties. Picene is a solid at room temperature and typically appears as a yellowish to brown crystalline substance. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as benzene and toluene. Picene exhibits interesting optical properties, including fluorescence, and has been studied for its potential applications in organic electronics, such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic photovoltaics. Additionally, due to its structure, picene can participate in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitution. However, it is important to handle picene with care, as many PAHs are known to be toxic and potentially carcinogenic. Its CAS number is 213-46-7, which uniquely identifies this compound in chemical databases.
