CAS 56-55-3
:Benzanthracene
Description:
Benzanthracene, with the CAS number 56-55-3, is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) composed of four fused benzene rings, resulting in a complex structure that contributes to its chemical properties. It is a solid at room temperature, typically appearing as a colorless to pale yellow crystalline substance. Benzanthracene is known for its high stability and low solubility in water, but it is soluble in organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, and chloroform. This compound is primarily recognized for its role as a carcinogen, with significant implications in environmental chemistry and toxicology, as it can be formed during the incomplete combustion of organic materials. Benzanthracene exhibits fluorescence and can absorb ultraviolet light, making it of interest in various scientific studies, including those related to photochemistry and environmental monitoring. Its presence in coal tar and certain fossil fuels raises concerns regarding human exposure and environmental impact, necessitating careful handling and regulation in industrial applications.

CAS:Controlled Product1,2-Benzanthracene is a model system for the study of the biological properties of benzenes. It has been shown to have mitochondrial membrane potential and inhibitory effects on the activities of enzymes such as sodium carbonate transferase and phosphofructokinase. 1,2-Benzanthracene also inhibits the growth of mouse tumor cells in culture through interference with protein synthesis. 1,2-Benzanthracene has been shown to be a skin carcinogen in animals. It can be used as a fluorescent probe for detection of benzenes in environmental samples, including wastewater treatment plants.Formula:C18H12Purity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:PowderMolecular weight:228.29 g/molBenz[a]anthracene-13C6
