Toxicity | The acute oral LD50 value in rats was reported as 616 g/kg (Jenner, Hagan, Taylor. Cook & Fitzhugh, 1964) and the acute dermal LD50 value in rabbits exceeded 5 g/kg (Leven-stein, 1975). |
physical and chemical properties | fluorenone, also known as anisone, is derived from the oxidation of α-pinene, with the odor of iron rust, it is mainly derived from the essential oil of sweet fennel. Natural anethole is non-toxic and is used in food additives. Fluorenone is a ketone monolith, colorless or light yellow oily liquid, with rich fruit aroma, cyan and woody aroma. It has a sweet aroma of flowers and fruits. Very difficult to dissolve in water, insoluble in propylene glycol, soluble in ethanol and non-volatile oil. Can be used as food spices (GB 2760-1996), mainly used for the preparation of cover seeds, cherry, grape, tropical fruit and other fruit flavor. |
