Product Information

• Name: Dodecahydrofluorene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Dodecahydrofluorene is a chemical compound that has been used as a catalyst in the production of pharmaceutical preparations. It is an aromatic hydrocarbon that can be prepared by irradiating dodecane with light at 254 nm for one hour at room temperature. Dodecahydrofluorene reacts with hydrogen chloride to produce cycloalkanes, which are important reaction products. Dodecahydrofluorene also has acidic properties and forms hydroxyl groups when exposed to light, which can lead to side reactions. This isomerizing agent is a solid catalyst and can be used in flow systems.
