9-Anthracenemethanol is an organic compound with the chemical formula C₁₅H₁₂O. It is a light yellow transparent liquid or yellow crystalline powder at room temperature, with a melting point range of 162-164°C. Its molecular structure contains an anthracene skeleton composed of three fused benzene rings, and the hydroxymethyl substituent is located at the carbon position 9 of the anthracene ring.
Physical and chemical properties Solubility: Soluble in polar solvents such as chloroform (20mg/mL), slightly soluble in water.
Stability: Stable at room temperature, but the hydroxyl group is easily oxidized to aldehyde byproducts when exposed to oxidants.
Application areas Mainly used for HPLC detection reagents, polymerization initiators and Diels-Alder reaction reagents, involving the preparation of polymer synthesis, fluorescent materials and dye molecules.
Higher main content and lower impurity levels; batch-to-batch stability; better solubility, particle size, and flowability, facilitating downstream processes.
Quality system advantages:
Certification list - ISO 9001, REACH registration number, FDA, Kosher, Halal; each batch comes with a COA, supporting third-party testing (SGS, etc.); full traceability.
Supply chain advantages:
Own factory/integrated production; annual production capacity is at full capacity, with plans to expand production; some stock is available for immediate delivery; delivery time is clear.
