The syntheses of methyl 12-(2-anthryl)dodecanoate, methyl 14-(2-anthryl)tetradecanoate, and methyl 17-(2-anthryl)heptadecanoate have been achieved.Both 1H and 13C chemical shifts and T₁ values for carbons in the systems have been recorded.By using selected heteronuclear decoupling and performing heteronuclear correlated 2-dimensional (HETCOR-2-D) experiments, it was possible to assign protons to specific carbons in most cases.
