Application
2-Bromo-9-fluorenone serves as a versatile organic intermediate, primarily recognized for its role in the development of liquid crystal materials and as a critical component in the production of OLEDs. As a brominated derivative of 9-Fluorenone, it is employed in the synthesis of various functional materials, including antimalarial drugs, spirobifluorene ligands, and altitudinal molecular motors. Furthermore, it acts as an end-capping agent for poly(9,9-dialkylfluorene-2,7-diyl) derivatives and is involved in the synthesis of 2-bromo-9-hydroxy-9-(2-biphenyl)fluorene. Its solubility varies significantly with temperature, ranging from a mole fraction of 0.0526 in 1,4-dioxane at 323.15 K to 0.0002 in methanol at 278.15 K, demonstrating increased solubility with rising temperatures across different solvents.
