Abstract

2,3,6,7-Naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride was prepared and characterized by UV, IR, and NMR spectra. Its structure was confirmed by single crystal X-ray determination. It is a moderate strength electron acceptor, stronger than p-benzoquinone and weaker than pyromellitic anhydride according to quantum mechanical calculations and electrochemical measurements.
