Treatment of dithranol 1 with various equivalents of acetyl chloride and Et 3 N in THF at room temperature afforded the corresponding acylated derivatives, such as 1‐acetyloxy‐ and 1,8‐diacetyloxy‐9(10 H )‐anthracenones, 6a , and 6b , as well as 1,8,9‐triacetyloxyanthracene 7a , and 1,8,9‐triacetyloxy‐10‐acetylanthracene 7b . 1,8‐Bis(trimethylacetyloxy)‐9(10 H )‐anthracenone 6c was also obtained in high yield by using pivaloyl chloride during the mild acylation.
