Abstract

1, 3-Dihydroxy-9, 10-anthraquinone (4) was reacted with epichlorohydrin or 1, ω-dibromo- alkane to yield 1-hydroxy-3-(2, 3-epoxypropoxy)-9, 10-anthraquinone (5) and 1-hydroxy-3-(3- chloro-2-hydroxypropoxy)-9, 10-anthraquinone (6) or 1-hydroxy-3-(ω-bromoalkoxy)-9, 10- anthraquinone. Ring-opening of the epoxide (5) or 1-hydroxy-3-(ω-bromoalkoxy)-9, 10- anthraquinones with appropriate amines, afforded various 1-hydroxy-3-(3-alkylamino-2- ...
