General Description

2,7-Dimethylanthracene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compound with the chemical formula C16H14. It is a derivative of anthracene, containing two methyl groups attached to the 2 and 7 positions of the aromatic ring. 2,7-Dimethylanthracene is a yellow to light orange crystalline solid and is insoluble in water. It is primarily used as a chemical intermediate and building block in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including dyes, fluorescent materials, and pharmaceuticals. Due to its aromatic nature and potential health hazards associated with PAH compounds, 2,7-Dimethylanthracene should be handled and used with caution in a controlled laboratory setting.

Two-photon absorption properties of 2,6-bis(styryl)anthracene derivatives: Effects of donor-acceptor substituents and the π center

A series of 2,6- and 2,7-bis-(styryl)anthracene derivatives with the donors at the styryl group and acceptors at the 9,10-positions have been synthesized, and their two-photon cross sections (φδmax) were determined. These compounds exhibit a peak two-photon absorptivity (δmax) in the range of 700-2500 GM at 780-1030 nm. Values of λmax and Stokes shifts increase as the acceptor is changed to a stronger one. There is also a parallel increase in λmax (2) and δmax with the same variation of the chromophore structure. Both λmax(2) and φδmax have been optimized by introducing donor-substituted styryl groups at the 2,6-positions and p-cyanophenyl groups at the 9,10-positions, respectively. The effect of a π center on the two-photon absorption properties has been assessed by comparing the existing data for a variety of D-π-D derivatives.

Dealkylation of tert-butylcalix[n]arenes in toluene: Formation of 2,6 and 2,7-dimethylanthracenes

An eutectic mixture of 2.6-dimethylanthracene VI and 2,7-dimethylantracene VII was formed during deterbutylation reaction of calix[n]arenes in toluene with aluminium chloride as catalyst. Using the deterbutylation of p-tert- butylcalix |4]arene I as a model we propose a mechanism of their formation. Springen Verlag Iberica 1997.
