Description

1-Nitrosopyrene is a high-purity nitroso-substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) derivative, serving as a critical intermediate and reference standard in advanced chemical research and development. Its significance lies in its utility for synthesizing more complex PAH derivatives and its role in environmental and toxicological studies as a model compound. This product is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science industries, particularly those focused on dye synthesis, organic electronics, and the study of nitroso-PAH metabolism and genotoxicity.

Application

• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: A key building block for the preparation of more complex polycyclic aromatic compounds, dyes, and functional materials.
• Analytical Reference Standard: Used in environmental, forensic, and toxicological laboratories for the calibration of equipment (HPLC, GC-MS) and qualitative/quantitative analysis.
• Research & Development: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for studying the chemical properties, reactivity, and photochemistry of nitroso-PAHs.
• Toxicology Studies: Serves as a model compound in metabolic and genotoxicity research to understand the biological impact of nitroso-substituted pollutants.
• Material Science Precursor: Investigated for potential use in the development of organic semiconductors and conductive polymers.

Quality Control

Our 1-Nitrosopyrene is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity assessment and spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR) for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to handle and store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability.
