Fluorene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with the molecular formula C₁₃H₁₀. It is a white flaky crystalline solid that exhibits fluorescence when impure and has a distinctive naphthalene-like aromatic odor. It is found in automobile exhaust, corn silk, and the high-boiling-point fractions of coal tar. Fluorene is flammable, poorly soluble in water, but soluble in benzene, carbon disulfide, ethanol, and diethyl ether.

Fluorene is the key raw material for synthesizing 9-fluorenone, which serves as an important intermediate for OLED and LED optoelectronic materials, as well as a core raw material for pharmaceutical intermediates (such as in anticancer drug synthesis) and high-end polymers (such as fluorene-based resins and polycarbonates). In recent years, the overall market for 9-fluorenone has experienced rapid growth, with a clear outlook for future development. At present, the demand for fluorene remains strong, and with the continuous expansion of downstream application fields, ongoing technological innovation, and strong policy support, its demand is expected to increase further. Meanwhile, the exit of some small and micro enterprises from the market has created opportunities for higher industry concentration and for the entry of large-scale enterprises. From the perspective of demand potential and future growth capacity, the fluorene industry holds significant investment value.
