• Beschreibung

  Anthracene is one of a group of chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs are often found together in groups of two ormore. They can exist inmore than 100 different combinations, but the most common are treated as a group of 15. PAHs are found naturally in the environment but they can also be made synthetically. Anthracene can vary in appearance from a colorless to pale yellow crystal-like solid. PAHs are created when products like coal, oil, gas, and garbage are burned but the burning process is not complete. Very little information is available on the individual chemicals within the PAH group; the majority of the information is for the entire PAH group. Anthracene is a solid white to yellow crystal, has a weak aromatic odor, and sinks in water. Its characteristics are boiling point, 3421°C; melting point, 2181°C; molecular weight, 178.22; density/specific gravity, 1.25 at 27 and 41°C; octanol–water coefficient, 4.45. It is soluble in absolute alcohol and organic solvents. Maximum absorption occurs at 218 nm.

• Chemische Eigenschaften

  ANTHRACENE is a colorless solid; melting point 218 °C, blue fluorescence when pure; insoluble in water, slightly soluble in alcohol or ether, soluble in hot benzene, slightly soluble in cold benzene; transformed by sunlight into para -anthracene (C14H10)2.

• Chemische Eigenschaften

  Anthracene is colorless, to pale yellow crystalline solid with a bluish fluorescence. PAHs are compounds containing multiple benzene rings and are also called polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons.

• Physikalische Eigenschaften

  White to yellow crystalline flakes or crystals with a bluish or violet fluorescence and a weak aromatic odor. Impurities (naphthacene, tetracene) impart a yellowish color with green fluorescence.

• Verwenden

  Most of the PAHs are used to conduct research. Like most PAHs, anthracene is used to make dyes, plastics, and pesticides. It has been used to make smoke screens and scintillation counter crystals. (A scintillation counter is used to detect or count the number of sparks or flashes that occur over a period of time.)

• Verwenden

  Anthracene has been shown to be soluble in a variety of binary and ternary mixtures of cyclohexanone, ethyl acetate, and methanol 1,2.

• Verwenden

  Anthracene is an aromatic hydrocarbonwith three fused rings, and is obtained by the distillationof crude oils. The main useis in the manufacture of dyes.It is an important source of dyestuffs.

• Vorbereitung Methode

  Anthracene is obtained from coal tar in the fraction distilling between 300° and 400 °C. This fraction contains 5–10% anthracene, from which, by fractional crystallization followed by crystallization from solvents, such as oleic acid, and washing with such solvents as pyridine, relatively pure anthracene is obtained. It may be detected by the formation of a blue-violet coloration on fusion with mellitic acid. Anthracene derivatives, especially anthraquinone, are important in dye chemistry.

• Definition

  (C₁₄H₁₀) A white crystalline solid used extensively in the manufacture of dyes. Anthracene is found in the heavy- and green-oil fractions of crude oil and is obtained by fractional crystallization. Its structure is benzene-like, having three six-membered rings fused toanion gether. The reactions are characteristic of AROMATIC COMPOUNDS.

• Reaktionen

  Anthracene reacts: (1) With oxidizing agents, e.g., sodium dichromate plus sulfuric acid, to form anthraquinone, C6H4(CO)2C6H. (2) With chlorine in water or in dilute acetic acid below 250 °C to form anthraquinol and anthraquinone, at higher temperatures 9,10-dichloroanthracene. The reaction varies with the temperature and with the solvent used. The reaction has been studied using, as solvent, benzene, chloroform, alcohol, carbon disulfide, ether, glacial acetic acid, and also without solvent by heating. Bromine reacts similarly to chlorine. (3) With concentrated sulfuric acid to form various anthracene sulfonic acids. (4) With nitric acid, to form nitroanthracenes and anthraquinone. (5) With picric acid (1)HO·C6H2(NO2)3(2,4,6) to form red crystalline anthracene picrate, melting point 138 °C.

• Toxikologie

  As a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, anthracene is suspected to be carcinogenic . This earlier experience involving workers is based on crude anthracene that was contaminated with various other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Pure anthracene, however, has no appreciable carcinogenic effect under experimental conditions . This is underlined by consistently negative findings in numerous in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity tests . Only subcutaneous injections of an oily solution containing 20 mg of anthracene, given 33 times at the rate of one per week, resulted in local development of fibroma, to some extent with sarcoma-like excrescences . An epicutaneous tumor initiation test conducted over 35weeks on mice with pure anthracene and phorbol ester as promoter resulted in papilloma in a few cases (4 out of 28 animals) . Anthracene is classified as “not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans” by IARC (Category 3) and by EPA (Group D) .
  Peroral application of 1.7 g/kg of pure anthracene has no lethal effect on mice . Anthracene is absorbed percutaneously: after topical application of a 14C-labeled solution in hexane or acetone (ca. 9 μg/cm3) to rat skin, some 50% was absorbed in 6 d (ca. 29% was recovered from the urine, ca. 22% from the feces, and ca. 1% from tissue, mainly the liver and kidneys); after 1 d 20% of the dose was already present in the urine (ca. 17 %) and feces (ca. 3%) . Anthracene can sensitize the skin locally to light . Gerarde proposes a TLV of 0.1 mg/m3 .

• Synthese

  Anthracene can be synthesized by hydrogenation of phenanthrene, isomerization of the resulting sym-octahydrophenanthrene to symoctahydroanthracene, and subsequent dehydrogenation .Amixture of sym-octahydroanthracene and sym-octahydrophenanthrene is obtained by catalytic disproportionation of tetralin . In addition, anthracene is formed from diphenylmethane in the presence of HF/BF3 at 80 ?C and by thermal reaction of o-methyldiphenylmethane at ca. 600 ?C .

• mögliche Exposition

  It is used as an intermediate in dye stuffs (alizarin), insecticides, and wood preservatives; making synthetic fibers, anthraquinone, and other chemicals. May be present in coke oven emissions, diesel fuel, and coal tar pitch volitiles.

• Erste Hilfe

If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and inducevomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.

• Carcinogenicity

  Anthracene was negative in mouse-skin-painting studies, and it is classified as a noncarcinogen by the IARC based on inadequate evidence. The methyl, anthryl, dimethyl, diprophyl, dinaphthyl, and tetramethyl derivatives of anthracene were noncarcinogenic except for 9,10-dimethyl anthracene, which may have contained impurities when tested.

• Source

  Concentrations in 8 diesel fuels ranged from 0.026 to 40 mg/L with a mean value of 6.275 mg/L (Westerholm and Li, 1994). Lee et al. (1992) reported concentration ranges of 100– 300 mg/L and 0.04–2 μg/L in diesel fuel and corresponding aqueous phase (distilled water), respectively. Schauer et al. (1999) reported anthracene in diesel fuel at a concentration of 5 μg/g and in a diesel-powered medium-duty truck exhaust at an emission rate of 12.5 μg/km. Anthracene was detected in a distilled water-soluble fraction of used motor oil at concentrations ranging from 1.1 to 1.3 μg/L (Chen et al., 1994).
  California Phase II reformulated gasoline contained anthracene at a concentration of 4.35 μg/kg. Gas-phase tailpipe emission rates from gasoline-powered automobiles with and without catalytic converters were 3.69 and 148 μg/km, respectively (Schauer et al., 2002).
  Thomas and Delfino (1991) equilibrated contaminant-free groundwater collected from Gainesville, FL with individual fractions of three individual petroleum products at 24–25 °C for 24 h. The aqueous phase was analyzed for organic compounds via U.S. EPA approved test method 625. Average anthracene concentrations reported in water-soluble fractions of kerosene and diesel fuel were 12 and 25 μg/L, respectively. Anthracene was ND in the water-soluble fraction of unleaded gasoline.
  The concentration of anthracene in coal tar and the maximum concentration reported in groundwater at a mid-Atlantic coal tar site were 5,000 and 0.02 mg/L, respectively (Mackay and Gschwend, 2001). Based on laboratory analysis of 7 coal tar samples, anthracene concentrations ranged from 400 to 8,600 ppm (EPRI, 1990). A high-temperature coal tar contained anthracene at an average concentration of 0.75 wt % (McNeil, 1983). Lehmann et al. (1984) reported an anthracene concentration of 34.8 mg/g in a commercial anthracene oil.
  Nine commercially available creosote samples contained anthracene at concentrations ranging from 5,500 to 14,000 mg/kg (Kohler et al., 2000).
  Anthracene was detected in asphalt fumes at an average concentration of 45.89 ng/m³ (Wang et al., 2001).
  Schauer et al. (2001) measured organic compound emission rates for volatile organic compounds, gas-phase semi-volatile organic compounds, and particle-phase organic compounds from the residential (fireplace) combustion of pine, oak, and eucalyptus. The respective gas-phase and particle-phase emission rates of anthracene were 3.44 and 0.228 mg/kg of pine burned, 2.13 and 0.0230 mg/kg of oak burned, and 1.76 and 0.0061 mg/kg of eucalyptus burned.
  Under atmospheric conditions, a low rank coal (0.5–1 mm particle size) from Spain was burned in a fluidized bed reactor at seven different temperatures (50 °C increments) beginning at 650 °C. The combustion experiment was also conducted at different amounts of excess oxygen (5 to 40%) and different flow rates (700 to 1,100 L/h). At 20% excess oxygen and a flow rate of 860 L/h, the amount of anthracene emitted ranged from 558.7 ng/kg at 900 °C to 2,449.7 ng/kg at 800 °C. The greatest amount of PAHs emitted were observed at 750 °C (Mastral et al., 1999).

• Environmental Fate

  Biological. Catechol is the central metabolite in the bacterial degradation of anthracene. Intermediate by-products included 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid and salicylic acid (Chapman, 1972). Anthracene was statically incubated in the dark at 25 °C with yeast extract and settled domestic wastewater inoculum. Significant biodegradation with gradual adaptation was observed. At concentrations of 5 and 10 mg/L, biodegradation yields at the end of 4 wk of incubation were 92 and 51%, respectively (Tabak et al., 1981). A mixed bacterial community isolated from seawater foam degraded anthraquinone, a photodegradation product of anthracene, to traces of benzoic and phthalic acids (Rontani et al., 1975). In activated sludge, only 0.3% mineralized to carbon dioxide after 5 d (Freitag et al., 1985).
  Soil. In a 14-d experiment, [14C]anthracene applied to soil-water suspensions under aerobic and anaerobic conditions gave 14CO2 yields of 1.3 and 1.8%, respectively (Scheunert et al., 1987). The reported half-lives for anthracene in a Kidman sandy loam and McLaurin sandy loam are 134 and 50 d, respectively (Park et al., 1990).
  Surface Water. The removal half-lives for anthracene in a water column at 25 °C in midsummer sunlight were 10.5 h for deep, slow, slightly turbid water; 21.6 h for deep, slow, muddy water; 8.5 h deep, slow, clear water; 3.5 h for shallow, fast, clear water, and 1.4 h for very shallow, fast, clear water (Southworth, 1977).
  Photolytic. Oxidation of anthracene adsorbed on silica gel or alumina by oxygen in the presence of UV-light yielded anthraquinone. This compound additionally oxidized to 1,4-dihydroxy- 9,10-anthraquinone. Anthraquinone also formed by the oxidation of anthracene in diluted nitric acid or nitrogen oxides (quoted, Nikolaou et al., 1984) and in the dark when adsorbed on fly ash (Korfmacher et al., 1980). Irradiation of anthracene (2.6 mM) in cyclohexanone solutions gave 9,10-anthraquinone as the principal product (Korfmacher et al., 1980). Photocatalysis of anthracene and sulfur dioxide at -25 °C in various solvents yielded anthracene-9-sulfonic acid (Nielsen et al., 1983). Schwarz and Wasik (1976) reported a fluorescence quantum yield of 0.25 for anthracene in water.
  Chemical/Physical. In urban air from St. Louis, MO, anthracene reacted with NOx forming 9- nitroanthracene (Ramdahl et al., 1982).

  Likely impurities are anthraquinone, anthrone, carbazole, fluorene, 9,10-dihydroanthracene, tetracene and bianthryl. Carbazole is removed by continuous-adsorption chromatography [see Sangster & Irvine J Phys Chem 24 670 1956] using a neutral alumina column and eluting with n-hexane. [Sherwood in Purification of Inorganic and Organic Materials, Zief (ed), Marcel Dekker, New York, 1969.] The solvent is evaporated, and anthracene is sublimed under vacuum, then purified by zone refining, under N2 in darkness or non-actinic light. It has also been purified by co-distillation with ethylene glycol (boils at 197.5o), from which it can be recovered by addition of water, followed by crystallisation from 95% EtOH, *benzene, toluene, a mixture of *benzene/xylene (4:1), or Et2O. It has also been chromatographed on alumina with pet ether in a dark room (to avoid photo-oxidation of adsorbed anthracene to anthraquinone). Other purification methods include sublimation in a N2 atmosphere (in some cases after refluxing with sodium), and recrystallisation from toluene [Gorman et al. J Am Chem Soc 107 4404 1985]. Anthracene has been crystallised from EtOH, chromatographed through alumina in hot *benzene (fume hood) and then sublimed in a vacuum in a pyrex tube that has been cleaned and baked at 100o. (For further details see Craig & Rajikan J Chem Soc, Faraday Trans 1 74 292 1978, and Williams & Zboinski J Chem Soc, Faraday Trans 1 74 611 1978.) It has been chromatographed on alumina, recrystallised from n-hexane and sublimed under reduced pressure. [Saltiel J Am Chem Soc 108 2674 1986, Masnori et al. J Am Chem Soc 108 1126 1986.] Alternatively, recrystallise it from cyclohexane, chromatograph it on alumina with n-hexane as eluent, and recrystallise two more times [Saltiel et al. J Am Chem Soc 109 1209 1987]. Anthracene is fluorescent and forms a picrate complex, m 139o, on mixing the components in CHCl3 or *C6H6, but decomposes on attempted crystallization. [Beilstein 5 IV 228.]
