9-ACETOXYANTHRACENE DERIVATIVES. PART VIII. THE MECHANISM OF DEGRADATION OF 9-ACETOXY-10-ARYLANTHRACENES TO ANTHRAQUINONE

The mechanism of degradation of 9-acetoxy-10-arylanthracenes to anthraquinone with the use of HNO3 in AcOH has been reported.This was proved by way of example on 9-acetoxy-10-(4'-acetoxyphenyl)anthracene (1) by means of separation and identification of intermediate products 2, 3 and 4.
