Application

Fluoranthene can be used as a starting material in the synthesis of:
  • Polyfluoranthene (PFA) based conducting polymer (PFA) by electrochemical anodic oxidation using Lewis acid catalyst.
  • Substituted fluorenones.
  • Fluorescence-emitting oligofluoranthene (OFA) nanorods by oxidative oligomerization.
