id: GO:0046234
name: obsolete fluorene biosynthetic process
namespace: biological_process
def: "OBSOLETE. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of fluorene, a tricyclic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon containing a five-membered ring. It is a major component of fossil fuels and their derivatives and is also a by-product of coal-conversion and energy-related industries. It is commonly found in vehicle exhaust emissions, crude oils, motor oils, coal and oil combustion products, waste incineration, and industrial effluents." [GOC:ai]
comment: This term was made obsolete because fluorene is not synthesized by living organisms and GO does not cover non-biological processes.
