483-65-8
Chemical Structure
Retene
Synonym(s): 7-Isopropyl-1-methylphenanthrene
- CAS No.: 483-65-8
- Formula:C18H18
- Molecular Weight:234.34
InChIKey: NXLOLUFNDSBYTP-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: CC1=CC=CC2=C3C=CC(C(C)C)=CC3=CC=C21
Biological Activity: Retene is widely present in modern and ancient sediments, and can be extracted from fir forest soils, humus coal, continental petroleum source rocks, and deep-sea sediments. Retene can be toxic when exposed to light, and this light-induced toxicity can have lethal and sublethal effects on aquatic organisms. Retene can be used as a model compound to study the interaction between environmental pollutants and ultraviolet rays[1][2].
