Abstract

Abstract: The spectroscopic properties and photochemical behavior of methyl phenanthrene- 9-carboxylate and of a primary, secondary, and tertiary phenanthrene-9-carboxamides have been investigated in the absence and presence of strong Lewis acids. The ground-state conformations of the free and complexed molecules have been investigated by means of NMR and Gaussian 88 calculations. The dihedral angle between the phenanthrene and ...
