BENZO(C)ACRIDINE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Benzo(c)acridine is used for assays to detect receptor modulating potential in cells.

Definition

ChEBI: Benz[c]acridine is a polycyclic heteroarene and an organonitrogen heterocyclic compound.

General Description

Solid.

Reactivity Profile

BENZO(C)ACRIDINE neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. May generate hydrogen, a flammable gas, in combination with strong reducing agents such as hydrides.

Health Hazard

Inhalation of material may be harmful. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Inhalation of Asbestos dust may have a damaging effect on the lungs. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Some liquids produce vapors that may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.

Fire Hazard

Some may burn but none ignite readily. Containers may explode when heated. Some may be transported hot.

Safety Profile

Questionable carcinogen withexperimental neoplastigenic and tumorigenic data.Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition itemits toxic fumes of NOx.
