The crystal structures of 4,10-dibromo-anthanthrone (Pigment Red 168; 4,10-dibromo-dibenzo[def,mno]chrysene-6,12-dione), 4,10-dichloro- and 4,10-diiodo-anthanthrone have been determined by single-crystal X-ray analyses. The dibromo and diiodo derivatives crystallize in P2(1)/c, Z = 2, the dichloro derivative in P1, Z = 1. The molecular structures are almost identical and the unit-cell parameters show some similarities for all three compounds, but the crystal structures are neither isotypic to another nor to the unsubstituted anthanthrone, which crystallizes in P2(1)/c, Z = 8.

Subsequent Rietveld refinements were carried out with TOPAS. The crystal phases correspond to those produced industrially.

The value of Z' is 3 and the asymmetric unit comprises three molecules of identical helicity along the N-O bond. Two of these show an anti and the third a syn arrangement of substituents attached in positions 3 and 4 to the 1,3-thiazole nucleus.

We isolated several complexes of this heterogeneous glycolipid from cultures of Ustilago maydis DSM 11494 and Geotrichum candidum ST 002515, and determined the chemical structures of these new compounds, termed ustilipids, on the basis of NMR experiments, mass spectra, and fatty acid analyses. They all possess a 4-O-beta-D-mannopyranosyl D-erythritol basic framework, the configuration of which was confirmed, after initial solvolysis, by a single-crystal X-ray structure analysis.
