Product Description:

16,17-Dihydroxyanthanthrone is an anthanthrone derivative, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with a fused ring structure containing two hydroxyl groups. It is a dark-colored solid, often appearing as a violet or dark red powder. This compound is primarily utilized as a key intermediate in the synthesis of vat dyes and high-performance organic pigments. Its rigid, planar anthanthrone core, when functionalized, provides excellent lightfastness, thermal stability, and vivid colors, making it valuable for coloring textiles, plastics, and inks. Furthermore, its structure makes it a potential monomer or building block for constructing conjugated polymers and organic semiconductors, where extended π-systems are crucial for charge transport in applications like organic photovoltaics (OPV) or field-effect transistors (OFETs). As a polycyclic aromatic compound, it requires careful handling due to potential environmental persistence and should be managed according to standard laboratory safety protocols for fine chemicals.
