Anthanthrone is a chemical compound . It is structurally derived from anthanthrene and has two carbonyl groups . It thus shows similarities to anthraquinone .

Extraction and presentation

Anthanthrone can be obtained by dehydrating 1,1'-dinaphthyl-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid or 1,1'-dinaphthyl-8,8'-dicarboxylic acid with sulfuric acid , chlorosulfonic acid or aluminum chloride, the dicarboxylic acids in turn starting from 1-aminonaphthalene can be represented. This synthesis was used in the first description of the compound by Ludwig Kalb in 1914.

properties

Anthanthrone is remarkably resistant to the action of alkalis and oxidizing agents . A sulfation occurs difficult one, easy contrast nitration in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid. Anthanthron has a crystal structure with the space group P 2 1 / c (space group no. 14) . Template: room group / 14

use

Anthanthrone is unsubstituted and has no technical significance. Only 4,10-dibromoanthanthrone is used technically as a pigment and is one of the most lightfast and weatherproof organic pigments. The more yellowish 4,10-dichloranthanthrone is irrelevant as a pigment.
