off-white to light yellow crystals | [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. | [General Description]
Anthrone has the ability to reduce aldehyde containing reducing sugars such as streptose and N-acetyl glucosamine present in streptomycin, into acids. It develops a red- violet color. Therefore, it is used to determine streptomycin quantitatively. Anthrone has been used to detect carbohydrate containing lipids and to measure sugar content such as sucrose and trehalose in the liquid medium. | [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.] |
