aromatic hydrocarbons containing more than one aromatic ring
« on: January 17, 2008, 01:00:42 PM »
Hello;

Can somebody give me a few examples (names, I mean) of aromatic hydrocarbons containing more than one aromatic ring or give me a link to a reliable source?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I saw it, I assume that "polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons" are a subdivision of "aromatic hydrocarbons".

Yes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are a subdivision of aromatic hydrocarbons.
