Description

3-Nitrofluoranthene is a nitro-substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) that has been identified as an environmental contaminant. It is typically found in coal tar, diesel exhaust, and other combustion products. The compound is of interest to researchers due to its potential toxicity and carcinogenicity. Studies have shown that 3-nitrofluoranthene can cause DNA damage and induce mutations in cells. Its synthesis often involves nitration of fluoranthene, using a mixture of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. The compound's presence in environmental samples is often measured using techniques such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Research into 3-nitrofluoranthene focuses on understanding its environmental fate and potential health risks. This includes studying its bioaccumulation in organisms, its degradation pathways in the environment, and its effects on human health.'
