1718-53-2 Usage
General Description
BENZO(A)ANTHRACENE D12, also known as Benzo(a)pyrene-d12 or Perdeuterobenzo[a]pyrene, is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) that is often used as a standard for the bioanalytical quantification of carcinogenic PAHs. This deuterated PAH is chemically labeled specifically to act as an internal analytical standard, enhancing the accuracy and reproducibility of PAH quantification. It is non-radioactive and safe to handle but is still potentially harmful if improperly managed due to its derived relation to its parent compound, benzo(a)anthracene, which is a known mutagen and carcinogen. It's predominantly used in the field of analytical chemistry, environmental testing, and forensics.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 1718-53-2 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 1,7,1 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 3 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 1718-53:
(6*1)+(5*7)+(4*1)+(3*8)+(2*5)+(1*3)=82
82 % 10 = 2
So 1718-53-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Hydrogen-deuterium exchange and rearrangement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in dilute acid medium at elevated temperatures
Werstiuk, Nick Henry,Timmins, George
, p. 3218 - 3220 (2007/10/02)
The high temperature-dilute acid (HTDA) method has been applied to the preparation of perdeuterated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.Naphthalene (1), 1-methylnaphthalene(2), 2-methylnaphthalene (3), anthracene (4), phenanthrene (5), chrysene (6), pyrene (7), benzanthracene (8), benzopyrene (9), 1,1'-binaphthyl (10), 1,2'-binaphthyl (11), and 2,2'-binaphthyl (12) have been perdeuterated in high yield in dilute DCl-D2O solutions at elevated temperatures (240-280 deg C). 2, 3, 10, 11, and 12 also rearrange.
