3,6-Dimethylphenanthrene（Cat No.:M050559） is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) characterized by a phenanthrene core structure with methyl groups substituted at the 3 and 6 positions. This compound is one of the numerous methylated derivatives of phenanthrene, possessing distinct chemical properties and reactivity due to its structural modifications. 3,6-Dimethylphenanthrene is primarily of interest in environmental science and toxicology as PAHs are significant pollutants found in oil, coal, and tar deposits, and are formed during the incomplete combustion of organic materials. It is studied for its persistence, bioaccumulation potential, and carcinogenicity in ecosystems.
