Conditions

Temperature
120 °C

Procedure

15.8 parts by weight naphthoquinone and 13.5 parts by weight of 1-acetoxybutadiene in 50 parts by volume of dimethylformamide and 1 part by volume of acetic acid are stirred for 6 hours under nitrogen at 45° - 50° C. 0.4 part by weight of sodium acetate is then added, oxygen is passed in and the batch is stirred for 2 hours at 120° C. After cooling, the anthraquinone which has precipitated is filtered off and washed with dimethylformamide. 18.2 parts by weight (91% of theory) of anthraquinone of melting point 284° C are obtained.
