Quantitative solubility data for fluorene (1) in water (2) have been reported in the publications listed in Table 1. No solubility data for water in fluorene have been reported.
The original data in all of these publications are compiled in the Data Sheets immediately following this Critical Evaluation. The solubility values are also summarized in Table 2 and plotted in Figure 1.
At 298K, the only temperature where comparison is possible, the available data (ref 1-3) are in good agreement and the average value can be Recommended. At other temperatures only the values of Wauchope and Getzen (ref 1) are available and are therefore regarded as tentative.
