Abstract
A novel reaction of 11,11,12,12-tetracyanoanthraquinodimethane - its t ransformation into 10-dicyanomethylene-anthrone hydrazone by reaction with hydrazine - is reported. This hydrazone seems to be a convenient starting material in the synthesis of anthracene derivatives and compo unds incorporating anthracenic fragments, but is itself as a conjugate d donor acceptor system a material with interesting physical propertie s.
