General description

9,10-Anthracenedicarboxylic acid (H2L) is an anthracene based dicarboxylic compound, which has a larger conjugating π-system that enables the development of fluorescent materials. It has interesting magnetic and luminescent properties. It can be used as a bridging carboxylic acid ligand with a steric bulk due to the presence of its anthracene ring.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Find details here.

Application

H2L can be potentially used in the formation of highly porous nanotubular and ultramicroporous metal organic frameworks (MOFs) for greener applications like hydrogen storage, methane storage and gas separation.

We report anthracene-diurea compounds which behave as anion sensors based on the fluorescence emission regulated by the substitution position on the anthracene ring. Anthracene-diurea compounds exhibit different excited-state intermolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reactions depending on the pattern of the substituents.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
