The preparation of substituted fluoranthenes by the aromatization of hydrogenated fluoranthene derivatives is described. 8-Nitrofluoranthene, one of the nitration products of fluoranthene, has been synthesized from 2-nitrofluorene and the preparation and properties of some 2-nitrofluorene derivatives of potential synthetic value are reported.
