Reaction Steps

A solution of (±)-2-acetyl-2,7,12-trihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthacene-6,11-dione (740 mg; 2.1 mmol) and ethylene glycol (280 mg; 4.4 mmol) in 400 ml of benzene, in the presence of a catalytic quantity of paratoluenesulfonic acid, is heated under reflux for 12 hours in a 500 ml round-bottomed flask. The flask is equipped with a "Dean Stark" apparatus (making it possible to remove the water formed as an azeotrope with benzene).
