9,10-Dihydroxyanthracene is an organic compound with the formula C14H10O2.

It is the hydroquinone form of 9,10-anthraquinone (AQ).

It formed when AQ is hydrogenated.

[1] It is easily dissolved in alkaline solutions and is often called soluble anthraquinone (SAQ).

In the anthraquinone process, hydrogen peroxide is manufactured as one of the products in the oxygen-mediated oxidation of a substituted 9,10-dihydroxyanthracene to its corresponding anthraquinone, such as 2-ethylanthraquinone.
