The 8 pages that link to Anthracene, each with the reason it gives.

• Coal tarBroader topic: Its recovery from coal tar helped supply the synthetic dye industry.

• Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbonBroader topic: Its linear ring arrangement provides a clear contrast with angular three-ring PAHs.

• NaphthaleneCompared with: Anthracene extends the fused-ring series beyond naphthalene’s two rings.

• AlizarinRelated: Anthracene became the industrial starting material for synthetic alizarin.

• AnthraquinoneRelated: Anthraquinone retains this three-ring framework, with carbonyl groups in its central ring.

• Fused ringBroader topic: Its extended fused framework illustrates how ring fusion grows aromatic systems.

• PhenanthreneCompared with: It has phenanthrene’s formula and ring count but a linear skeleton.

• AcridineCompared with: Anthracene has acridine’s three-ring framework without a ring nitrogen.
