Whereas benz[a]anthracene (1) is a weak carcinogen, its 12-methyl (2a), 7-methyl (3a), and 7,12-dimethyl (4a) analogues become increasingly more carcinogenic.1 All 0022-3263/81 /1946-2816801.25/0 © 1981 American Chemical Society

The controlled potential electrolyses of anthracene(I), 9-methylanthracene(II), and 9-phenylanthracene(III) in acetonitrile solutions containing (CH3h NF.2HF led to the formation of fluoro derivatives in the 9-and 10-positions. Yields were limited by dimer formation. The products from the electrolyses areconsistent with the involvement of radical cations as intermediates.
