| 9,10-DIMETHYLANTHRACENE Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | yellow crystals or crystalline powder | Uses | 9,10-Dimethylanthracene is used as an antioxidant-photosensitizer dual-loaded polymeric micelles with controllable production of reactive oxygen species. It is also used as chemical rate constant actinometer in singlet molecular oxygen reactions. | Synthesis Reference(s) | Journal of the American Chemical Society, 104, p. 5807, 1982 DOI: 10.1021/ja00385a052 The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 53, p. 2120, 1988 DOI: 10.1021/jo00244a056 | General Description | 9,10-Dimethylanthracene belongs to the class of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are generally used as potential starting materials for the synthesis of a variety of industrial chemicals. | Health Hazard | This compound caused lungs and skin tumorin mice at the site of application. Carcinogenicity in humans is unknown. It testedpositive in the histidine reversion–Amestest; the mammalian micronucleus test wasinconclusive. | Purification Methods | Purify 9,10-dimethylanthracene by crystallising from EtOH, and by recrystallising from the melt.
