Vat Violet 10

commonly known as Isoviolanthrone.(a) 7H-benzo[de]anthracen-7-one?chlorinated, with Potassium hydroxide of Etanol solution treatment; (b) 7H-benzo[de]anthracen-7-one?and Potassium hydroxide of Etanol solution in Xylene, Chlorobenzene or kerosene in heating; (c) 3-Chloro-7H-benzo[de]anthracen-7-one?the anthrone into corresponding sulfide or selenide and then use alkali treatment.

Isoviolanthrone , Formerly prepared from 3- halobenzanthrone by alcoholic potash melt. Isomer-free isoviolanthrone is obtained by an alcoholic potash melt of 3,3'-dibenzanthronyl sulfide or by the one-pot method .
Dichlorination of isoviolanthrone with sulfuryl chloride, or alternatively bromination in chlorosulfonic acid, affords brilliant violet vat dyes and pigments.

Dissolve isoviolanthrone in 98% H2SO4 and precipitate it by adding water to reduce the acid concentration to about 90%. It sublimes in vacuo to give dark green-violet needles [Parkyns & Ubblehode J Chem Soc 4188 1960]. [Beilstein 7 I 465, 7 II 815, 7 III 4538, 7 IV 2747.]
