9-Methylanthracene

9-Methylanthracene is a photoreactive agent. 9-Methylanthracene induces intramolecular and intermolecular [4+4] cycloaddition reactions via photochemical reactions to form dimers. 9-Methylanthracene is promising for research of photomechanical materials and light-responsive crystal dynamics[1][2].
