11-Hy-droxy-9-(prop-2-en-1-yl)-9,10-dihydro-9,10-propano-anthracen-12-one
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(20)H(18)O(2), the central six-membered ring adopts a boat conformation and the terminal benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 42.66 (4)° with each other. In the crystal structure, the O-H group forms both an intra- and an inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond; the former generates an S(5) ring and the latter leads to inversion-generated R(2) (2)(10) loops. The dimers are further linked into ribbons propagating along the a axis by C-H⋯O inter-actions, and the packing is consolidated by weak C-H⋯π inter-actions.

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Acid Halides, Esters, and Acid Anhydrides
The IUPAC and common names of acid halides are derived from the corresponding carboxylic acids, by changing “ic acid” to “yl halide.” For example, as shown below, the IUPAC name ethanoyl chloride is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetyl chloride, is obtained from acetic acid.
Preparation of Diols and Pinacol Rearrangement
The reaction begins with transferring a proton from the acid catalyst to one of the hydroxyl groups, producing an oxonium ion.

Adrenergic Agonists: Chemistry and Structure-Activity Relationship
Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
