Dislocations and the photodimerization of 9-cyanoanthracene

Abstract
The dislocations emergent at bc and ac faces have been characterized and shown to be the preferred sites of photodimerization; in particular, partial dislocations on (211) planes give rise to a trans registry of molecules across contiguous planes, and thereby facilitate the formation of the trans dimer.
