for starters you can look on the web at the Sigma-Aldrich MSDS website:
https://www.sigma-aldrich.com/
it will give you initial information. I tried it for the compound you are
asking about and I had to search the MSDS by "full test" and not product
name, and it came up with 9-Fluorenylmethyl chloroformate and some
information about it.
here's some useful info from there:
Product Name: 9-Fluorenylmethyl chloroformate
Molecular Formula: C15 H11 Cl O2
Molecular Weight: 258.7
CAS: 28920-43-6

(1978).
