Application

Picene (purified by sublimation), ≥99.5%, is a specialized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon consisting of five fused benzene rings, primarily obtained from the distillation of petroleum. Its purpose is to serve as a high-purity compound for chemical and materials research, offering insights into the properties and reactions of polycyclic hydrocarbons. Picene is notable for its crystalline structure, forming large, colorless plates with a characteristic blue fluorescence. Despite predictions of its carcinogenic potential based on quantum mechanical calculations, animal studies have not confirmed this risk. This makes Picene an intriguing subject for further study regarding its environmental impact and chemical behaviors. Additionally, its various reactions, such as solubility in concentrated sulfuric acid, oxidation by chromic acid, and transformation into hydrides with hydriodic acid, highlight its versatility and usefulness in scientific exploration.
