Application

2-Aminoanthracene can be used as a reactant to prepare:
  • Steroid derived naphthoquinoline asphaltene compounds via multicomponent cyclocondensation reaction with 5-α-cholestan-3-one and aromatic aldehydes.
  • Naphtho[2,3- f ]quinoline derivatives by reacting with aromatic aldehyde and acetone or acetophenone catalyzed by iodine.
