9-Methylphenanthrene

Description:

9-Methylphenanthrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) characterized by its fused aromatic rings and a methyl group attached to the phenanthrene structure at the 9-position. It has a molecular formula of C15H12, indicating it consists of 15 carbon atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and exhibits a high melting point, which is characteristic of many PAHs due to their planar structures and strong π-π stacking interactions. 9-Methylphenanthrene is known for its hydrophobic nature, making it relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It is often studied for its environmental persistence and potential carcinogenic properties, as many PAHs are associated with adverse health effects. Additionally, it can be found in fossil fuels and is a byproduct of incomplete combustion processes. Its presence in the environment raises concerns regarding pollution and human exposure, prompting research into its behavior and effects in various ecosystems.

9-Methylphenanthrene is an aromatic hydrocarbon that has a variety of uses. It is used in the manufacture of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and other organic chemicals. 9-Methylphenanthrene can be synthesized by demethylation of carbon disulphide with ethylene diamine as a test sample. The activation energies for this reaction are 3.2 kcal/mol and 2.5 kcal/mol, respectively. The rate at which 9-methylphenanthrene is eliminated from the body is proportional to body mass index (BMI). This substance has been observed to have low energy levels in NMR spectra and can be detected by nmr spectroscopy.
