Fluoranthen-3-ol, with the CAS number 17798-09-3, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). It features a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group attached to a fluoranthene backbone, which consists of four fused benzene rings. This compound is typically characterized by its solid state at room temperature and exhibits a relatively high melting point. Fluoranthen-3-ol is known for its potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. It may also exhibit biological activity, although specific studies on its toxicity and environmental impact are limited. The presence of the hydroxyl group enhances its solubility in polar solvents compared to its parent compound, fluoranthene. As with many PAHs, it is important to handle fluoranthen-3-ol with care due to potential health risks associated with exposure. Overall, fluoranthen-3-ol is a compound of interest in both industrial and research settings, particularly in the fields of organic chemistry and environmental science.
