Reaktionsschritte

Dinitroanthraquinone (same composition as in Example 2, 18.0 g; 0.06 mole), N-methylpyrrolidone (100 ml) and sodium formate (12.2 g; 0.18 mole) were stirred at 110° C. for 16 hours while air was sparged into the reaction mass. Product work-up as in Example 1 gave a cake of 1.9 g (92.5% 1,5-dihydroxyanthraquinone, 7.5% 1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone) and a filtrate product of 12.0 g (4.0% 1-hydroxyanthraquinone, 88% 1,5- and 1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone, 2.7% intermediate and 5.3% dinitroanthraquinones).
