Reaction Steps

15.8 parts by weight of naphthoquinone and 13.0 parts by weight of 1-acetoxybutadiene in 40 parts by volume of dimethylformamide and 10 parts by volume of acetic acid are stirred for 6 hours under nitrogen at 45° - 50° C. Air is then passed in and the batch is stirred for 2 hours at 125° C. After cooling, the anthraquinone which has precipitated is filtered off and washed with dimethylformamide. 18.0 g (90% of theory) of anthraquinone of melting point 284° C are obtained.
