Acenaphthene by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high-grade reagent. This compound is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) containing a naphthalene with an ethylene bridge. This reagent is available as colourless crystalline powder, slightly soluble in water andbenzene. Industrially, Acenaphthene is obtained from coal tar and its derivative acenaphthylene (and many other compounds). Acenaphthene, similar to other arenes, forms complexes with low valent metal centres. Coal tar contains around 0.3% of Acenaphthene.
