Various 2-substituted anthracenes have been synthesized and their reaction with maleic anhydride investigated. The amounts of the two possible isomers formed, syn and anti, afforded a medium for the evaluation of the electronic effect on the stereochemistry of the reaction. The results of these studies are discussed. © 1963, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
