6-Fluoro-4-chromanone

What is 6-Fluoro-4-chromanone?

Pink-rose crystals

6-Fluoro-4-chromanone was utilized in hydantoin synthesis of irreversible aldose reductase inhibitors.

6-Fluoro-4-chromanone may be used as internal standard:

to investigate the carbonyls emission from gasoline-powered light-duty vehicles (LDVs) and heavy-duty diesel-powered vehicles by chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses
in a direct analysis of carbonyls in diesel emissions by new HPLC technique with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) MS

6-Fluoro-4-chromanone has been tested in the specific synthetic route for the preparation of organically modified xerogel.
