9‐Fluorenol liegt in verdünnter Lösung als nur ein Konformeres mit zwischen die beiden aromatischen Ringe gerichtetem Hydroxyl‐Proton vor (1H‐NMR‐Spektrum), doch läßt das IR‐Spektrum keine intramolekulare H‐Bindung erkennen.

The most stable conformation of these derivatives favours such interactions by avoiding secondary hydrogen bonds between the oxygen atoms and the ortho-H of the aryl rings in the planar conformation as well as by increasing the gauche/trans ratio for steric reasons. The rotational barriers of the studied compounds are higher when electron-donor substituents are placed at the para position of the aryl ring. The trend of the electronic effects exerted by the substituents
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
