Abstract

A simple and facile synthesis of 13-aryl-5H-dibenzo[b,i]xanthene-5,7,12,14(13H)-tetraones is accomplished by the one-pot condensation of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthaquinone and aldehydes under solvent-free condition in the presence of phosphomolybdic acid. This method has the advantages of high yield, clean reaction, short reaction time and simple work-up.
