Abstract
The electronic and infrared absorption spectra of thelephoric acid and its leucoacetate indicate that the structure at present accepted for the pigment is incorrect. It is suggested from an interpretation of these spectra, together with a re-evaluation of the reported properties of thelephoric acid and its derivatives, that the substance may be a hydroxylated terphenyl containing internal quinhydrone and benzofuran systems (e.g. (V)).Keywords
