Abstract

I. INTRODUCTION In order to test the feasibility of studying the movements of monolayers of long-chain alcohols in anti-evaporation experiments by means of fluorescent additives or analogues, a number of surface active alcohols containing an anthracene nucleus have been synthesized. These compounds are collectively represented by structure I and contain a substituted anthracene nucleus with the hydroxyl group terminating a relatively short aliphatic side- ...
