Description

10-Azabenzo(A)Pyrene is a high-purity polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) derivative, specifically an azaarene, with the CAS number 189-92-4. This compound is of significant interest in advanced research and development due to its unique structural and electronic properties derived from the nitrogen atom substitution within the benzo[a]pyrene framework. It serves as a critical reference standard and a valuable synthetic intermediate for researchers and industrial chemists in the fields of environmental analysis, materials science, and pharmaceutical development.

Application

• Environmental Analysis & Toxicology: Used as a certified reference material (CRM) and analytical standard for the detection and quantification of azaarenes in environmental samples, such as air particulates, soil, and water, to assess pollution and toxicological impact.
• Pharmaceutical & Biochemical Research: Acts as a key intermediate or a model compound in studies investigating the metabolism, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity of nitrogen-containing polycyclic aromatic compounds.
• Materials Science & Organic Electronics: Serves as a building block or dopant in the synthesis of organic semiconductors, light-emitting materials, and other advanced functional materials due to its electron-accepting characteristics.
• Chemical Synthesis: Employed as a specialized precursor for the synthesis of more complex heterocyclic compounds and dyes in fine chemical manufacturing.
• Quality Control & Method Development: Essential for calibrating analytical instruments (e.g., HPLC, GC-MS) and validating testing protocols in industrial and regulatory laboratory settings.
