| Thioxanthen-9-one Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Thioxanthone is a heterocyclic compound that is a sulfur analog of xanthone.Thioxanthone can be prepared by the reaction of diphenyl sulfide with phosgene in the presence of catalytic aluminium chloride. This synthesis can be seen as a special case of the Friedel-Crafts acylation. The reduction product is thioxanthene.Thioxanthone dissolves in concentrated sulfuric acid to give a yellow colored liquid with intense green fluorescence. A mixture of the thioxanthone derivatives of 2- and 4-isopropylthioxanthone (ITX) is used in the printing industry. Pharmaceutical drugs that are derivatives of thioxanthone include hycanthone and lucanthone. | | Chemical Properties | slightly yellow crystalline powder | | Uses | Thioxanthen-9-one is a reagent and a starting material for the synthesis of Metixene Hydrochloride. It is also used for highly functional group tolerant and chemoselective oxidation of aromatic or aliphatic sulfides to sulfoxides with hydrogen peroxide. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | Tetrahedron Letters, 35, p. 2195, 1994 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4039(00)76794-3 | | Purification Methods | It forms yellow needles from CHCl3 or EtOH and sublimes in vacuo. It is soluble in CS2, hot AcOH, and dissolves in conc H2SO4 to give a yellow colour with green fluorescence in VIS light. The sulfone has m 187o (from EtOH), and the hydrazone has m 115o (yellow leaflets from EtOH/*C6H6). The oxime has m 194-196o (from pet ether). [Szmant et al. J Org Chem 18 745 1953, Ullmann et al.
