Treatment of dithranol 1 with various equivalents of acetyl chloride and Et3N in THF at room temperature afforded the corresponding acylated derivatives, such as 1-acetyloxy- and 1,8-diacetyloxy-9(10H)-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(10H)-anthracenone 6c was also obtained in high yield by using pivaloyl chloride during the mild acylation.
