The chemistry of metal-superoxo intermediates started being unveiled in oxidation reactions by enzymes and their synthetic model compounds. However, aromatic hydroxylation reactions by the metal-superoxo species are yet to be demonstrated. In this study, we report for the first time that the hydroxylation of aromatic compounds such as anthracene and its derivatives by a mononuclear nonheme Cr(iii)-superoxo complex, [(Cl)(TMC)CrIII(O2)]+ (1), occurs in the presence of triflic acid (HOTf) via the rate-determining proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from anthracene to 1, followed by a fast further oxidation to give anthraquinone. The rate constants of electron transfer from anthracene derivatives to 1 in the presence of HOTf are well analyzed in light of the Marcus theory of electron transfer.

A novel series of phenylimino-10H-anthracen-9-ones and 9-(phenylhydrazone)- 9,10-anthracenediones were synthesized and evaluated for interaction with tubulin and for cytotoxicity against a panel of human tumor cell lines. The 10-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-pheny
THE SYNTHESIS OF 10,10-DISUBSTITUTED ANTHRONES VIA THE REARRANGEMENTS OF 9-ANTHRYL ETHERS
Branz, Stephen E.,Carr, Jessica A.
, p. 441 - 452 (2007/10/02)
The thermal rearrangement of 9-allyoxy-10-phenylanthracene (and related ethers) to 10-allyl-10-phenylanthrone (and related anthrones) is described.Evidence supporting a radical rearrangement pathway is presented.
