17526-15-7 - Introduction
Xanthorin is a natural product and is a compound with a yellow to orange color. It is mainly found in some plants, such as the lichen (lichen) in the family Orchidaceae.
Xanthorin is widely used as a biological indicator to monitor air pollution and climate change in the environment. Its content in lichens is proportional to the SO2 concentration in the environment, so it can be used to detect the concentration level of sulfur dioxide in the air.
The method for preparing Xanthorin is generally obtained by extraction from a lichen containing the compound. The extraction process generally requires the use of an organic solvent, such as an alcohol or ether, to dissolve the Xanthorin, followed by purification and drying to obtain the pure compound.
With regard to the safety information of Xanthorin, no specific studies of toxicity or harmfulness have been reported. However, as a general principle for chemical substances, appropriate safe handling procedures should be followed, such as wearing appropriate protective equipment (such as gloves and eye protection) for handling, and operate in a well-ventilated place to reduce potential risks to humans and the environment. When using Xanthorin, it is recommended to read the product instructions carefully and follow the relevant safe operation guidelines.
