9-(chloromethyl)phenanthrene

Description:

9-(Chloromethyl)phenanthrene is an organic compound characterized by its phenanthrene backbone with a chloromethyl group attached at the 9-position. This compound typically appears as a solid at room temperature and is known for its aromatic properties due to the presence of the phenanthrene structure, which consists of three fused benzene rings. The chloromethyl group introduces a reactive site, making it useful in various chemical reactions, particularly in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. The presence of chlorine can also influence its reactivity and solubility in different solvents. Additionally, 9-(chloromethyl)phenanthrene may exhibit biological activity, which can be of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety considerations should be taken into account when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks due to its chlorinated nature. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate any environmental impact.
