Fluorenone, also known as "9-fluorenone", is a yellow crystalline powder made by adding oxidation catalyst to industrial fluorene as raw material. It can be used in various synthetic polymer materials such as heat-resistant materials, separation membranes and optical materials.
Fluorenone is an organic compound with the chemical formula C13H10O, also known as 2-oxonaphthalene or 2-fluorenylmethanone. It is a colorless to light yellow crystalline solid with an aromatic odor. Fluorenone is strongly aromatic, stable and non-volatile. It is an important aromatic compound and is widely used in chemical synthesis, organic synthesis, dyestuffs, and pharmaceuticals. Fluorenone is also an important organic semiconductor material, which can be used in the preparation of organic field effect transistors, organic photoelectric conversion materials, organic photoelectric sensors and other high-tech applications.
As an organic intermediate made of industrial fluorene, 9-fluorenone is an important raw material for organic synthesis of modified monomer products containing fluorene ring structure polymer materials, which can be applied in various fine chemical manufacturing fields such as resin, medicine, pesticide, dye, printing and plastic industry.
