Abstract

A reinvestigation of the anthrone derivative 4-hydroxyaloin as main product of the mild in vitro-oxidation of aloin has led to the revision of the proposed structure as the aloin-analogous oxanthrone derivative, the new 10-hydroxyaloin, which was prepared from aloin by an improved procedure in ammonia at pH 9. 10-Hydroxyaloin was separated into its C10-diastereomers A and B by analytical and preparative chromatographic methods. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (FAB-MS; 1H/13C-NMR; CD), which show that 10-hydroxyaloin A is the 10R,1′R compound and that 10-hydroxyaloin B has the 10S,1′R-configuration.
