Reactions of 1,5-dichloroanthraquinone (1) with various nucleophiles were examined to evaluate possibilities for selective substitution. 1-Amino-5-chloroanthraquinone was obtained from 1 by reaction with (a) sodium azide in dimethyl sulfoxide and (b ammonia in the presence of potassium fluoride, but 1 with potassium in ammonia gave 3-chlorobenzoic acid.Conditions were found for preferential substitution in reactions of 1 with (c) 4-toluidine, (d) hexamethylphosphoric triamide, and (e) N-methylformamide.Reagent e is preferred for making 1-chloro-5-(methylamino)anthraquinone, though this compound predominates in mixtures produced when d is used.Potassium hydroxide in 2-ethoxyethanol converts 1 to the corresponding mono- and diethers of 1,5-dihydroxyanthraquinone, while sodium hydrosulfide and 1 give bis(5-chloroanthraquinonyl)sulfide.
