9,10-Diphenylanthracene, 99%

9,10-Diphenylanthracene acts as a sensitizer in chemiluminescence. It is used in light sticks in order to produce blue light. It is also useful in blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and OLED-based displays. Further, it plays an important role in the preparation of 9,10-difluoro-9,10-diphenyl-9,10-dihydro-anthracene. In addition to this, it is used as an organic semiconductor.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
