anthracenen.

Brit.

/ˈanθrəsiːn/, U.S.

/ˈænθrəˌsin/

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French anthracène.

Etymology: < French anthracène (A. Laurent 1837, in Ann. de chim. et de phys. 66 149) < ancient Greek ἀνθρακ- , ἄνθραξ charcoal, in Hellenistic Greek also coal (see anthrax n.) + French -ène -ene comb. form. Compare German Anthracen (1839 or earlier; now usually Anthrazen).The substance was originally named paranaphthaline paranaphthalene n.

Chemistry.

A colourless crystalline aromatic hydrocarbon obtained by the distillation of coal tar or crude oil and used in chemical manufacture. Formerly called paranaphthalene.Anthracene has a tricyclic molecule containing three fused benzene rings. Formula: C₁₄H₁₀.

1870 Mechanics' Mag. 16 Sept. 203/2 Dr. Bottger has been making experiments with that substance [sc. anthracene], and has discovered a beautiful orange-red compound, to which he has given the name of anthracene orange.

1891 R. Routledge Discov. & Inventions 19th Cent. (ed. 8) 662 Two other colouring matters have also been derived from anthracene, and are much used in dyeing; one is commercially named anthracene purple, the other is anthracene green, which supplies the calico printer with very fast shades of olive-green.

1922 J. J. Sudborough Bernthsen's Text-bk. Org. Chem. (new ed.) lv. 844 The 1:2:3 compound, anthracene brown (anthragallol) is obtained by condensing benzoic and gallic acids in sulphuric acid solutions.

1961 Brit. Med. Jrnl. 4 Feb. 324/2 Transverse sections of the colon were then cut at 100μ, stained with anthracene blue, and mounted.

2000 S. Garfield Mauve 176 There were over 100 names—including anthracene green and naphthalene yellow—that originated purely from the chemist's workbench.

C3.

anthracene oil n. a distillate containing anthracene and similar aromatic compounds; any of the components of such a liquid.
