Dioxolane is a heterocyclic acetal with the formula (CH2)2O2CH2. It is related to tetrahydrofuran by exchanging an oxygen for the CH2 group. The isomer 1,2-dioxolane (in which the two oxygen centers are adjacent) is a peroxide. 1,3-Dioxolane is used as solvent and comonomer in polyacetal. The dioxolane-type and their hydrogenolysis can provide very valuable partially protected building blocks either for oligosaccharide syntheses or sugar transformations.
Fluorene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon insoluble in water and soluble in many organic solvents. Fluorenes are one of the most important fluorescent molecules with applications in polymers, electronic devices, sensors, and photochromic materials.
