U+918C "醌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
醌
U+918C "醌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the chemical term "quinone," a class of organic compounds derived from aromatic hydrocarbons, often used in dyes, pharmaceuticals, and biological processes. In modern Chinese, it specifically denotes the cyclic diketone structure found in molecules like benzoquinone, and it is also used in Japanese as part of chemical nomenclature. The character combines the radical for "unitary" or "one" with components related to distillation or alcohol, reflecting its scientific context rather than everyday language.
