1-Methylanthracene

Description:
1-Methylanthracene is an organic compound belonging to the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) family. It is characterized by a fused three-ring structure, where a methyl group is attached to the anthracene backbone. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature, exhibiting a crystalline form with a characteristic yellow to greenish color. 1-Methylanthracene is known for its fluorescence properties, making it useful in various applications, including organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and as a fluorescent probe in chemical research. It has a relatively high melting point and is soluble in organic solvents such as benzene and toluene, but poorly soluble in water. The compound is stable under normal conditions but can undergo reactions typical of aromatic compounds, such as electrophilic substitution. Due to its structure, 1-methylanthracene can participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and polymerization. As with many PAHs, it is important to handle 1-methylanthracene with care due to potential health risks associated with exposure.
