General description

9-Nitroanthracene belongs to the class of nitrated-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, found to be persistent in the environment. It is produced from direct sources such as diesel, gasoline exhaust and by the gas-phase reactions of PAHs with oxides of nitrogen.

Application

9-Nitroanthracene may be used as a certified reference material for the quantification of the analyte in the following:
  • Aerosol samples using direct infusion into an atmospheric pressure photoionization high-resolution mass spectrometer (APPI-HRMS).
  • Air and diesel particulate reference materials using pressurized-fluid extraction (PFE) with normal-phase liquid chromatography (LC) followed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) in negative ion chemical ionization (NICI) mode.

Commercial anthraquinone (AQ) (9,10-anthracenedione) is produced by at least three different production methods worldwide: oxidation of anthracene (AQ-OX), Friedel-Crafts technology (AQ-FC) and by Diels-Alder chemistry (AQ-DA), with the final product varying in color and purity. AQ-OX begins with anthracene produced
