2-Bromo-9,9-dimethylfluorene is a popular synthetic precursor for OLED materials to make devices that efficiently emit a deep blue color.2-Bromo-9,9-dimethylfluorene is a fluorene derivative which shows π-electron conjugation. It has a high fluorescent and high electron delocalization. It can be used as a non-linear optical (NLO) material. It can be synthesized by using 2-bromofluorene and iodomethane as the major reactants. It can be majorly used in organic electronic based applications.
2-Bromo-9,9-dimethylfluorene is a specialized organic intermediate synthesized via electrophilic bromination of 9,9-dimethylfluorene. Its molecular formula is C15H13Br and CAS number is 40679-83-2.
