4-Hydroxyphenanthrene

Description:

4-Hydroxyphenanthrene is an organic compound characterized by its phenanthrene backbone with a hydroxyl (-OH) group positioned at the 4th carbon of the phenanthrene structure. This compound is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and exhibits properties typical of such compounds, including hydrophobicity and potential for environmental persistence. It is generally a solid at room temperature and may appear as a crystalline or powdery substance. The presence of the hydroxyl group introduces polar characteristics, which can influence its solubility in various solvents, making it more soluble in polar solvents compared to its parent phenanthrene. 4-Hydroxyphenanthrene is of interest in various fields, including environmental chemistry and materials science, due to its potential role in the formation of more complex organic compounds and its implications in studies related to PAH toxicity and environmental impact. Additionally, it may serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis and has applications in research related to organic electronics and photonics.
