Abstract

Summary 9-Methyl-3, 4-benzpyrene has been synthesized by application of the Scholl ring closure, with subsequent zinc dust distillation, to the benzoyl derivative of 8- methylperinaphthane. The intermediate hydrocarbon was obtained in good yield by synthesis from a-chloromethylnaphthalene and ethyl methylmalonate. Observations are reported concerning the ozonization and hydrogenation of pyrene.
