Химические свойства
Pyrene is a colorless crystalline solid when
pure or pale yellow plates (impure). Polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) are compounds containing multiple
benzene rings and are also called polynuclear aromatic
hydrocarbons. Solids and solutions have a Blue fluores-
cence (Merck Index).
Физические свойства
Colorless solid (tetracene impurities impart a yellow color) or monoclinic prisms crystallized from
alcohol. Solutions have a slight blue fluorescence.
Использование
Pyrene occurs in coal tar. Also obtained by the destructive hydrogenation of hard coal. Found in wastewater in aquatic environments, and possesses genotoxic characteristics relating to estrogenic/andr
ogenic, antiestrogenic and antiandrogenic activity.
Методы производства
There is no commercial production or known use for this
compound. Pyrene has been used as starting material for the
synthesis of benzo[a]pyrene.
Определение
A condensed ring hydro-
carbon.
Общее описание
Colorless solid, solid and solutions have a slight blue fluorescence. Used in biochemical research.
Реакции воздуха и воды
Insoluble in water.
Профиль реактивности
Pyrene reacts with nitrogen oxides to form nitro derivatives. Pyrene also reacts with 70% nitric acid.
Опасность
A questionable carcinogen, absorbed by
skin.
Угроза здоровью
Pyrene is a carcinogenic agent and is absorbed by the skin. It is a skin irritant, a suspected mutagen, and an equivocal tumor-causing agent. Workers exposed to 3 to 5 mg/m3 of Pyrene exhibited some teratogenic effects. Pyrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). The acute toxicity of pure PAHs appears low when administered orally or dermally to rats or mice. Human exposure to PAHs is almost exclusively via the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, and approximately 99 percent is ingested in the diet. Despite the high concentrations of Pyrene to which humans may be exposed through food, there is currently little information available to implicate diet-derived PAHs as the cause of serious health effects.
Пожароопасность
When heated to decomposition, Pyrene emits acrid smoke and fumes.
Профиль безопасности
Poison by inhalation. Moderately toxic by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. A sh irritant. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Human mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
Возможный контакт
Pyrene is used as an industrial chemi-
cal and in biochemical research.
Канцерогенность
Pyrene was inactive as a tumor initiator. Based on
inadequate animal data and no human data, the IARC
classified pyrene as group 3, not classifiable as to its
carcinogenicity to humans, and IRIS classified pyrene
as a class D compound. Pyrene is present as a major
component of the total content of PAHs in the environment.
Exposure occurs primarily through tobacco smoke,
inhalation of polluted air, and by ingestion of food and
water.

Методы очистки
Crystallise pyrene from EtOH, glacial acetic acid, *benzene or toluene. Purify it also by chromatography of CCl4 solutions on alumina, with *benzene or n-hexane as eluent. [Backer & Whitten J Phys Chem 91 865 1987.] It can also be zone refined and purified by sublimation. Marvel and Anderson [J Am Chem Soc 76 5434 1954] refluxed pyrene (35g) in toluene (400mL) with maleic anhydride (5g) for 4days, then added 150mL of aqueous 5% KOH and refluxed for 5hours with occasional shaking. The toluene layer was separated, washed thoroughly with H2O, concentrated to about 100mL and allowed to cool. Crystalline pyrene was filtered off and recrystallised three times from EtOH or acetonitrile. [Chu & Thomas J Am Chem Soc 108 6270 1986, Russell et al. Anal Chem 50 2961 1986.] The material is free from anthracene derivatives. Another purification step involves passage of pyrene in cyclohexane through a column of silica gel. It can be sublimed in a vacuum and zone refined. The picrate has m 224o. [Kano et al. J Phys Chem 89 3748 1985, Beilstein 5 IV 2467.]
Несовместимости
Pyrene 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. Pyrene reacts with nitrogen oxides to
form nitro derivatives. It also reacts with 70% nitric
acid
Утилизация отходов
Dissolve or mix the
material with a combustible solvent and burn in a chemical
incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber.
All federal, state, and local environmental regulations must
