9,10-Anthracenedione, 2-[(11-hydroxyundecyl)oxy]-

Description:

9,10-Anthracenedione, 2-[(11-hydroxyundecyl)oxy]- is an organic compound characterized by its anthraquinone structure, which consists of a three-ring aromatic system with two carbonyl groups at the 9 and 10 positions. This compound features a long hydrocarbon chain with a hydroxyl group at one end, contributing to its amphiphilic nature. The presence of the hydroxyl group enhances its solubility in polar solvents, while the hydrophobic alkyl chain promotes interactions with non-polar environments. This dual solubility can facilitate its use in various applications, including as a surfactant or in drug delivery systems. The compound may exhibit biological activity, potentially serving as a precursor in the synthesis of dyes or pharmaceuticals. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by the functional groups present, making it a subject of interest in both synthetic and medicinal chemistry. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many organic compounds, due to potential toxicity or environmental impact.
