Usage

Chemical Properties

11H-Benz[bc]aceanthrylene has a melting point of 123℃. Solutions have a greenish fluorescence.

Uses

11H-Benz[bc]aceanthrylene is used in research of carcinogenic activity of methylene-bridged derivatives of benz[a]anthracene. No carcinogenic action was observed. As a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), it is considered as a pollutant.

Carcinogenicity

11H-Benz[bc]aceanthrylene gave positive results when tested for carcinogenicity in one initiation–promotion study on mouse skin, but gave negative results after subcutaneous injection to mice.

A New General Synthesis of Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds Based on Enamine Chemistry

Alkylation of enamines and enamine salts by benzylic and (β-haloethyl)aryl halides, respectively, followed by acidic cyclodehydration and dehydrogenation provides an efficient synthetic approach to a wide range of polycyclic aromatic compounds of diverse structural types.Specific polycyclic hydrocarbons synthesized by this route include benzo- and benzofluorene, 7H-dibenzo-, 13H-dibenzo-, and 13H-dibenzofluorene, 15H-tribenzofluorene, dibenzochrysene, benzopentaphene, indenofluorene, fluorenofluorene, octahydrodibenzanthracene, dibenzanthracene, octahydrodibenzanthracene, dibenzanthracene, picene, benzopicene, 1H-benzaceanthrylene, and 4H-cyclopentachrysene.This method with appropriate modifications appears to be potentially broader in scope than established traditional methods of polycyclic hydrocarbon synthesis.
