Alizarin, Anthrapurpurin and Flavopurpurin give somewhat similar shades with the different mordants, namely, brown with chromium, red with aluminium, orange with tin, and purple with iron.

Anthrapurpurin and flavopurpurin are obtained from two isomeric disulphanthraquinonic acids, improperly named isoanthraflavic and anthraflavic acids, which are converted into anthrapurpurin and flavopurpurin by a more profound action of potassa.

Anthrapurpurin and flavopurpurin differ little from each other, though the shades dyed with the latter are more yellow.

"Alizarins for reds" all contain more or less of alizarin properly so-called, from 1 to 10 per cent., along with anthrapurpurin and flavopurpurin.
