General Description
Prisms.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as 9-METHYLFLUORENE, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction. 9-METHYLFLUORENE is volatile with steam.
Fire Hazard
Flash point data for 9-METHYLFLUORENE are not available. 9-METHYLFLUORENE is probably combustible.
