1,3,5-triphenylbenzene(CAS: 612-71-5)

1,3,5-triphenylbenzene is an organic compound with the molecular formula C18H12. It is a triphenyl derivative of benzene, characterized by three phenyl groups attached at the 1, 3, and 5 positions of the benzene ring. It is a colorless crystal with a melting point of 137-139°C and a boiling point of 313-314°C.

1,3,5-triphenylbenzene is primarily used as a precursor in organic synthesis for the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and other organic compounds. It is also used in the electronics industry for the production of resistors and other components. Additionally, it has applications in chromatography and as a reagent in research settings.

1,3,5-triphenylbenzene is generally considered safe for industrial use when proper handling procedures are followed. However, it is important to take necessary precautions such as wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) to avoid skin contact and inhalation. It is non-flammable but can cause irritation to the eyes, skin, and respiratory system. Adequate ventilation should be maintained during handling.

1,3,5-triphenylbenzene should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent degradation. It should be kept in a tightly sealed container to avoid exposure to air and moisture. The storage area should have good ventilation to reduce the risk of flammability and to prevent the accumulation of vapors. It is recommended to store it at room temperature (20-25°C) and to avoid temperatures above 30°C.
