- from which company to purchase
- how to process
- interactions with solvents

Decades ago I got some from Aldrich - see they still sell it. Tried to react it with 2,3-naphthalyne to make napthalene analog of triptycene. Did not get the product but only had small amount of precursor. Frank
A second thought, since this is a polymer group, is make
2-amino,-3-carboxypentacene make the diazonium carboxylate and polymerize. I got ~98% yield of reaction of benzyne (benzenediazonium carboxylate precursor) with tetraphenylcyclopentadienone so there is potential for high polymer. FrankJoin the Discussion
