Uses Anthrone is a tricyclic aromatic ketone and related compound of anthracene. Anthrone is used as a reagent in the colorometric determination of carbohydrates.
Definition ChEBI: A member of the class of anthracenes that is 9,10-dihydroanthracene carrying an oxo group at C-9.
Safety Profile Mutation data reported. Whenheated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke andirritating vapors.
Purification Methods This stable keto tautomer of 9-anthranol (above) provides yellow crystals from a 3:1 mixture of *C6H6/pet ether (b 60-80o) (10-12mL/g), or successively from *C6H6 then EtOH. Dry it in vacuo. [Meyer Org Synth Coll Vol I 60 1941, Beilstein 6 IV 4930.]
