Phenanthrene Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

Phenanthrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) composed of three fused benzene rings. The name phenanthrene is a composite of phenyl and anthracene. In its pure form, it is found in cigarette smoke and is a known irritant, photosensitizing skin to light. Phenanthrene appears as a white powder having blue fluorescence.

Chemical Properties

Phenanthrene is a white crystalline substance. Weak aromatic odor. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are compounds containing multiple benzene rings and are also called polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons.

Physical properties

Colorless, monoclinic crystals with a faint, aromatic odor

Uses

Phenanthrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, an environmental pollutant.

Production Methods

Phenanthrene occurs in coal tar and can be isolated from several types of crude petroleum.

Definition

ChEBI: A polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon composed of three fused benzene rings which takes its name from the two terms 'phenyl' and 'anthracene.'

General Description

Colorless monoclinic crystals with a faint aromatic odor. Solutions exhibit a blue fluorescence.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Phenanthrene may react with oxidizing materials .

Health Hazard

The acute oral toxicity of phenanthrene is low.It is more toxic than anthracene. An oral LD50value in mice is reported at 700 mg/kg. It maycause tumor in skin at the site of application.The evidence of carcinogenicity in animals,however, is inadequate.

Fire Hazard

Phenanthrene is combustible.

Safety Profile

Poison by intravenous route. Moderately toxic by ingestion. Mutation data reported. A human skin photosensitizer. Questionable carcinogen with experimental neoplastigenic and tumorigenic data by skin contact. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame; can react vigorously with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use water, foam, CO2, dry chemical. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes

Potential Exposure

Dust may form explosive mixture with air. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides.

Carcinogenicity

Phenanthrene is ineffective as an initiator. It is not classifiable as to human carcinogenicity— class 3 by IARC and class D by IRIS, based on no human data and inadequate data from a single gavage study in rats and skin painting and injection studies in mice.

Shipping

UN3077 Environmentally hazardous substances, solid, n.o.s., Hazard class: 9; Labels: 9-Miscellaneous hazardous material, Technical Name Required.

Waste Disposal

Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant (≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing storage, transportation, treatment, and waste disposal.
