Description

3-Nitrofluorenone is a synthetic organic molecule that is used as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals. It is used as a reagent in the synthesis of hydroxamic acids, and it can be used to prepare 3-nitrobenzenesulfonamide, which is a precursor to pharmaceuticals. This compound has been shown to inhibit bacterial growth by reacting with amino groups on proteins and also by reacting with DNA. 3-Nitrofluorenone can also be reduced to form nitro compounds that are reactive with other molecules in the environment, leading to its use as an environmental pollutant. 3-Nitrofluorenone may also have some anticancer effects due to its ability to react with DNA, but more research is needed on this topic.
