Photo- and electrochemical properties of anthracenes attract increasing interest for applications as dyes, scintillators, sensors, switches, etc. [¹] Additionally, anthracene derivatives are integrated into complex molecular and supramolecular systems including polymers. [²] The properties of anthracenes can be widely tuned by the nature and the position(s) of the substituents. Many different substitution patterns were studied over the years so that a whole set of ...
