Abstract

Summary 1. Thiaxanthenol-5-dioxide and several of its derivatives have been prepared and characterized. 2. The existence of a mobile, two-step oxidation-reduction equilibrium between thiaxanthenol-5-dioxide and thiaxanthone-5-dioxide in alkaline solution has been established. By optical, chemical and electrochemical means it was shown that the colored entity in this equilibrium is a semiquinone.
