Description

General description

Vibrational spectroscopy of jet-cooled 9-fluorenemethanol and its clusters 9-fluorenemethanol-H₂O, 9-fluorenemethanol-CH₃OH, 9-fluorenemethanol-C₂H₅OH and 9-fluorenemethanol-C₃H₇OH has been studied by IR-UV double-resonance method. Electropolymerization of 9-fluorenemethanol in boron trifluoride diethyl etherate leads to low-potential electrodeposition of semiconducting poly(9-fluorenemethanol) (PFMO) film.

Application

9-Fluorenemethanol, N-protecting reagent, was used in the peptide syntheses. 9-Fluorenemethanol was also used in the synthesis of deoxynucleoside 9-fluorenemethyl phosphorodithioates.
