Fluorene, is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. It forms white crystals that exhibit a characteristic, aromatic odor similar to that of naphthalene.
F 1410 (OTTO) Fluorene, 98% Cas no 86-73-7 - used study the extraction of specific, semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs).Fluorene is a precursor to other fluorene compounds; the parent species has few applications.
