Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAC) are known to be major constituents in coal and petroleum products. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are by far the most common PAC in these materials. However, nitrogen-, oxygen- and sulfur-containing PAC are also often found in significant quantities. Because of the widespread interest in and use of fossil fuels, detailed study of their compositions has become an important task.
