摘要 |
The present invention relates to a process for the synthesis of 2-carboxyanthraquinone from 2-ethylanthraquinone by oxidation of the said ethyl group by means of a nitric acid solution. Anthra-quinones are used in the manufacture of oxygen-absorbing films which make possible the preparation of packagings suited to the preservation of oxygen-sensitive products, such as foodstuffs.
