9-Fluorenone CAS 486-25-9 - High-Quality Product from China Suppliers and Factory
The carbonyl group in the 9-fluorenone molecule has typical properties of ketone compounds and can undergo addition reactions, reduction reactions, etc. For example, it can react with Grignard reagents to generate the corresponding alcohol, and can be reduced with a reducing agent to obtain 9-fluorenol. In addition, electrophilic substitution reactions can occur on the benzene ring of fluorenone. Due to the electron-withdrawing effect of the carbonyl group, the reaction mainly occurs at the meta position of the carbonyl group.
Addition Reactions
Reacts efficiently with Grignard reagents to generate the corresponding alcohol compounds.
Reduction Capacity
Can be reduced using standard reducing agents to yield high-purity 9-fluorenol.
Electrophilic Substitution
Occurs on the benzene ring, directed to the meta position due to the carbonyl's electron-withdrawing effect.
