A new method of acylation and formylation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919908085816

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon radical anions, prepared by the addition of sodium to the aromatic hydrocarbon in THF, undergo acylation with carboxylic acid esters and formylation with N,N-dialkylformamides.
