Thioxanthone (CAS 492-22-8)
QUICK LINKS
Thioxanthone, a derivative of xanthone, holds a significant role in various scientific research domains, particularly in the realms of photochemistry and biochemistry. Within the realm of photochemistry, it serves as a valuable photosensitizer, facilitating photochemical reactions like the photobleaching of dyes. In the field of biochemistry, it finds use as an enzyme inhibitor and a fluorescent marker for proteins. Furthermore, in materials science, it serves as a precursor for polymer synthesis and a dopant for semiconductor materials. Thioxanthone′s notable property lies in its capacity to act as a photosensitizer, absorbing light energy and subsequently transferring it to a specific target molecule. This transfer initiates a chemical reaction that has the potential to give rise to the formation of a new molecule.
