GENERAL DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS
Indene is a clear to yellowish liquid ; boils at 181C and melts at -2 C. It is a polynuclear hydrocarbon compound with a five-membered ring fused to benzene ring. Indan, 2,3-dihydroindene, is a clear to yellowish liquid; boiling point 177 C;  insoluble in water; soluble in alcohol and ether. Indanone is a ketone form of indane. These compounds can be obtained from coal tar distillation; used as solvents, raw material for synthetic resins and to make other organic compounds such as pharmaceutical ingredients and agrochemicals especially plant growth regulators. Some indane compounds have the characteristic odour and  are used for the preparation of perfumes and flavouring agents. A main industrial application of indene is the production of indene/cumarone thermoplastic resin. Indanedione is the nucleus of synthetic anticoagulants for the treatment of disorders in which there is excessive or undesirable clotting, such as thrombophlebitis, pulmonary embolism, and certain cardiac conditions. They inhibits the hepatic synthesis of the vitamin K–dependent coagulation factors. Anticoagulants act as rodenticide by causing massive hemorrhaging. Indanedione class anticoagulants or rodenticides include diphenadione, phenindione,  pindone, and valone. Indane class compounds show various functions such as light and temperature sensitivity, heat resistance, conductivity, emittability, corrosion resistance and detection of amino groups. They are used in the applications of  thermo and light sensitizer, liquid crystal chemistry, optical brightening agents, luminescence chemistry, spectrophotometric analysis, molecular chemistry, organometallic-complexes and biochemorphology industry.
