Phenanthrene

CAS 85-01-8: Phenanthrene

Description:Phenanthrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) characterized by its three fused benzene rings, resulting in a planar, aromatic structure. It is a colorless, crystalline solid at room temperature, with a characteristic odor reminiscent of coal tar. Phenanthrene is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, and chloroform. Its molecular formula is C14H10, and it has a molecular weight of approximately 178.23 g/mol. Phenanthrene is known for its stability and resistance to oxidation, making it a persistent environmental contaminant. It is primarily produced through the incomplete combustion of organic materials and is found in coal tar and fossil fuels. In terms of applications, phenanthrene is used in the production of dyes, plastics, and as a precursor for various chemical syntheses. However, it is also recognized for its potential health risks, as it is classified as a possible human carcinogen, necessitating careful handling and regulation in industrial contexts.
