Abstract

Abstract: A series of 1-substituted anthraquinones has been synthesized, most often by nucleophilic aromatic substitution on 1-chloroanthraquinone. They have the following structures and were prepared in the indicated yields where E is-CH2CH2-and Ar is the 1- substituted anthraquinone: 1, Ar-OCH3 (48%); 2, Ar-OEOEOCH3 (61%); 3, Ar- OEOEOEOCH,(61%); 4, Ar-OEOEOEOEOCH,(65%); 5, Ar-OEOEOEOEOEOCH,(14%); 6, ...
