Chemical Properties of anthracene
Anthracene, a chemical compound, participates in addition and electrophilic substitution reactions, with a preference for occurring at the C-9 and C-10 positions. This preference can be rationalized by examining the intermediate carbonium ions generated from attacks at C-1, C-2, and C-9 (where other positions are symmetrical equivalents of 1, 2, or 9). In the equations … Read more
