that occurs in the plant Rubia cordifolia (Indian madder).[1] It is one of ten dihydroxyanthraquinone isomers. Its molecule can be viewed as deriving from anthraquinone by replacement of two hydrogen atoms (H) by hydroxyl groups (-OH).

Xanthopurpurin occurs in small amounts (as a glicoside in the root of the madder plant, Rubia tinctorum, together with alizarin, purpurin and other anthraquinone derivatives.[2]

Properties

It is insoluble in hexane but soluble in chloroform. It can be obtained from solutions in the latter as reddish crystals that melt at 270–273 °C.[1]

Like many dihydroxy- and trihydroxyanthraquinones, it has a purgative action, although only 1/6 as effective as 1,2,7-trihidroxyanthraquinone (anthrapurpurin).[3]
