| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Yellow needles from benzene. | [Uses]
Dibenzo[a,e]fluoranthene is a useful intermediate in synthesizing poly cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and also a suspected carcinogenic compound. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Dibenzo[a,e]fluoranthene is a member of phenanthrenes. | [General Description]
Yellow crystals. Water insoluble. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Dust/air mixtures may ignite and explode. Insoluble in water. | [Reactivity Profile]
Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as DIBENZO(A,E)FLUORANTHENE, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction. | [Carcinogenicity]
Applied dermally and in one
initiation–promotion study on mice, dibenzo[a,e]fluoranthene
gave positive results. On the basis of these
data, it was concluded that there was limited evidence for
the carcinogenicity of dibenzo[a,e]fluoranthene in experimental
animals. |
