Reaction Steps

To a solution of 9-bromoacetyl-6,9-dihydroxy-5,7,8,9,10,12-hexahydronaphthacene-5,12-dione (780 mg) in acetone (64 ml) was added sodium acetate (1.6 g) and the mixture was allowed to react at room temperature for 65 hours. After removing insoluble matters by filtration, the most part of the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure and subjected to filtration to give yellow crystals (560 mg, 76%) of 9-acetoxyacetyl6,9-dihydroxy-5,7,8,9,10,12-hexahydronaphthacene-5,12-dione. M.P., 203°-206° C.
