Abstract

The quantum-chemical method B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) was used to calculate structural parameters of four conformers of 9,10-dihydroxyanthracene, two conformers of 9-hydroxyanthrone, and the corresponding anions, dianion, and radical anion. The energy of 9,10-dihydroxyanthracene in a gas phase is higher and in aqueous solution lower than the energy of 9-hydroxyanthrone. The dianion can exist exclusively in a polarizable medium.
