Use of alpha-di(lower alkoxy) anthraquinones in the synthesis of Alizarin Saphirols

Alpha-dihydroxyanthraquinones used as intermediates in the synthesis of many dyestuffs, such as the Alizarin Saphirols (e.g. Color Constitution No. 63000, 63005, 63010, 63011, 63315 and 63610) can be replaced on an equimolar basis by alpha-di(lower alkoxy)anthraquinones. The alpha-di(lower alkoxy) anthraquinones can be converted in a single step, by treatment with oleum, to the corresponding alpha-dihydroxyanthraquinone-beta-disulfonic acids in almost quantitative yield. The corresponding diamine is obtained by dinitrating followed by reduction of the nitro groups. The known intermediate, leuco 1,4,5,8-tetrahydroxyanthraquinone (see C.I. No. 62500) can be obtained either by reduction of the diamine or by reduction of the dinitro compound. In one embodiment, the alpha-di(lower alkoxy)anthraquinone is obtained from dinitroanthraquinone by treatment thereof with methanol and KOH. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
A process for making 1,5-dihydroxy-4,8-diaminoanthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid, 1,8-dihydroxy-4,5-diaminoanthraquinone-2,7-disulfonic acid and mixtures thereof, comprising the steps of: 1.
nitrating anthraquinone to give a mixture of dinitroanthraquinones which is about 50-60% 1,5-dinitroanthraquinone, about 30-40% 1,8-dinitroanthraquinone and up to about 20% 1,6- and 1,7-dinitrianthraquinone; 2.
treating the mixture of dinitroanthraquinones with lower alkanolic caustic to convert the nitro groups to lower alkoxy groups and yield a mixture of diloweralkoxy anthraquinones which is predominantly 1,5- and 1,8-diloweralkoxyanthraquinone; 3.
treating the mixture of diloweralkoxy anthraquinones with oleum to yield a mixture of dihydroxyanthraquinone-disulfonic acids which is predominantly 1,5-dihydroxyanthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid and 1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone-2,7-disulfonic acid; 4.
nitrating at least one of the dihydroxyanthraquinonedisulfonic acids to give a dihydroxy-dinitroanthraquinonedisulfonic acid; and 5.
reducing the nitro groups of the dihydroxy-dinitroanthraquinone-disulfonic acid to give a dihydroxy-diaminoanthraquinonedisulfonic acid.
2.
The process of claim 1, wherein step (4) is carried out on 1,5-dihydroxyanthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid that has been separated from the mixture of dihydroxyanthraquinone-disulfonic acids resulting from step (3).
3.
The process of claim 1, wherein step (4) is carried out on the mixture resulting from step (3) to give a mixture of dihydroxy-dinitroanthraquinone-disulfonic acids.
4.
The process of claim 3, wherein step (5) is carried out on the mixture of dihydroxy-dinitroanthraquinonedisulfonic acids resulting from step (4).
5.
The process of claim 3, wherein step (5) is carried out on 1,5-dihydroxy-4,8-dinitroanthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid that has been separated from the mixture of dihydroxy-dinitroanthraquinone-disulfonic acids.
6.
A process for making leuco 1,4,5,8-tetrahydroxyanthraquinone which comprises: 1
