Abstract

Abstract The influence of the nitro group on the aromatic π-system of pyrene has been studied by comparing the spectroscopic and photochemical properties of the three mononitropyrenes. Whereas the UV and mass spectra of 1-and 4-nitropyrene show an interaction normal for nitro-aromatic compounds, this is not observed for 2-nitropyrene. The lack of interaction is reflected in a UV spectrum very similar to that of pyrene and a mass ...
