Abstract

9-Aryl-10-methylanthracenes undergo reaction with cupric halides to give the corresponding 9-aryl-10-halogenomethylanthracenes. 9-Ethyl-and 9-benzyl-10-methylanthracenes similarly undergo reaction at the Me group rather than at the Et or Bz groups to form the halogenomethyl compound. These results indicate that the 9-alkyl-10-anthrylmethyl radical is more stable than the radicals which would be formed by hydrogen abstraction from the ...
