Benzo[c]phenanthrene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C
18H
12. It is a white solid that is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. It is a nonplanar molecule[1][2] consisting of the fusion of four fused benzene rings. The compound is of mainly theoretical interest but it is environmentally occurring[3] and weakly carcinogenic.[4]
