The reaction of the aldehyde 1 with aluminium trichloride in benzene affords the dihydrobenzanthrone 2.The structure is confirmed by an X-ray analysis.Dehydrogenation of 2 yields the benzanthrone 3, which shows a greenish yellow fluorescence.According to the 1H-NMR and mass spectra, the deuterated products 5 and 6 are formed, when the key reaction is carried out in benzene.
