Description

1-(6-Benzo(A)Pyrenyl)Ethanol is a high-purity, specialized organic compound derived from benzo[a]pyrene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). This chemical serves as a crucial advanced intermediate or reference standard in sophisticated research and development processes. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, analytical testing facilities, and academic research institutions engaged in studies related to metabolism, toxicology, and environmental analysis.

Application

• Metabolite Reference Standard: Used as an analytical standard in HPLC, LC-MS, or GC-MS for the identification and quantification of benzo[a]pyrene metabolites in biological and environmental samples.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a key intermediate or substrate in studies investigating the metabolic activation pathways and DNA adduct formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
• Toxicology Studies: Employed in in vitro and in vivo research to understand the carcinogenic mechanisms and biological effects of PAH derivatives.
• Environmental Analysis: Acts as a high-purity standard for calibrating equipment and validating methods in the analysis of PAH contaminants in soil, water, and air.
• Organic Synthesis: Functions as a specialized building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules for research purposes in medicinal and synthetic chemistry.
