Kekulé Structures in Fluoranthenes

open access: yesZeitschrift für Naturforschung A, 2010
Fluoranthenes are polycyclic conjugated molecules consisting of two benzenoid fragments, connected by two carbon-carbon bonds so as to form a five-membered ring. Fluoranthenes possessing Kekul´e structures are classified into three types, depending on the nature of the two carbon-carbon bonds connecting the two benzenoid fragments.
