6-Fluoro-1-indanone is an organic compound characterized by its indanone structure, which consists of a fused benzene and cyclopentanone ring system. The presence of a fluorine atom at the 6-position of the indanone ring significantly influences its chemical properties, including its reactivity and polarity. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is known for its applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its ability to serve as an intermediate in various chemical reactions. The fluorine substituent can enhance the lipophilicity and metabolic stability of derivatives, making them more effective in biological systems. Additionally, 6-Fluoro-1-indanone may exhibit interesting photophysical properties, which can be exploited in materials science. As with many fluorinated compounds, it is essential to handle it with care, considering potential toxicity and environmental impact.

6-Fluoro-1-indanone is an analog of a reactive, conformational molecule. It is a sulfide that is cyclooxygenase inhibiting and has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in mice and rats. 6-Fluoro-1-indanone inhibits the function of two important enzymes, cyclooxygenases and sulfhydryl enzymes, by reacting with their active site. This inhibition prevents the production of prostaglandins and thromboxanes which are known to cause inflammation and pain. 6-Fluoro-1-indanone also inhibits tumor growth by preventing the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and proteins, which are required for cell division. This drug has been shown to be effective against several types of cancer cells including leukemia cells.
