Applications

2-Bromofluorene was used in the synthesis of end-capping reagent 2-bromo-9,9-di-nhexylfluorene¹. It has been used in the preparation of poly(di-n-hexylfluorene)s end capped with 2-bromofluorene, 2-bromo-9,9-di-n-hexylfluorene and 9-bromoanthracene through Ni(0) mediated polymerization¹. It was also used in the synthesis of 2-bromo-9,9-dihexylfluorene².
