2,9,10-Tri(2-naphthyl)anthracene(CAS: 865435-18-3)

2,9,10-Tri(2-naphthyl)anthracene (CAS: 865435-18-3) is a crystalline solid with a molecular weight of approximately 684.4 g/mol. It has a low solubility in common organic solvents but is more soluble in non-polar solvents. Chemically, it is highly stable but can undergo photodegradation under UV light. It is non-toxic and has no flammability concerns.

2,9,10-Tri(2-naphthyl)anthracene is synthesized via multistep reactions, often involving the condensation of anthracene and naphthalene derivatives. Common catalysts include copper salts, and the process yields around 70-80%. The synthetic route involves protecting the anthracene functionalities, followed by coupling reactions to introduce the naphthyl groups.

2,9,10-Tri(2-naphthyl)anthracene (CAS: 865435-18-3) is used in the semiconductor industry for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and as a photovoltaic material. It is also found in the pharmaceutical sector for the development of certain dyes and pigments, and in the sensor industry for gas sensing applications.

When handling 2,9,10-Tri(2-naphthyl)anthracene (CAS: 865435-18-3), ensure appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and safety glasses. Store it in a well-ventilated area and use a fume hood during handling. In case of spills, clean up with appropriate absorbent materials and dispose of waste according to local regulations. Always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed emergency procedures.
