8-O-methyltetrangulol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as angucyclines. These are polyketides with a structure based on then benz[a]anthracene skeleton, with the particularity that the central ring of the anthracene moiety is a para-quinone. 8-O-methyltetrangulol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
