- Formation of arenes via diallylarenes: Strategic utilization of Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling, Claisen rearrangement and ring-closing metathesis
-
Two new synthetic strategies for benzoannulation are reported. The first strategy is based on the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. To this end, various ortho-diallylbenzene derivatives were prepared from the corrresponding diiodo derivatives by an allylation strategy using an allylboronate as coupling partner. These diallyl derivatives were subjected to a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) and one-pot dichlorodicyanoquinone (DDQ) oxidation sequence to deliver 2-substituted naphthalenes. In the second strategy, a double Claisen rearrangement and RCM protocol have been used as key steps to give highly functionalized benzoannulated quinone derivatives.

- Chemistry of Quinones. Part 7. Synthesis of Anthracyclinone Analogues via Diels-Alder Reactions of 1,4-Anthraquinones
-
Diels-Alder adducts were formed by reaction of 1,4-anthraquinone with buta-1,3-diene, with 1-acetoxy-, 1-methyl-, 2-methyl-, and 2,3-dimethyl-buta-1,3-diene, and with cyclohexa-1,3-diene.Adducts were also prepared by reaction of 9-chloro-10-hydroxy-1,4-anthraquinone with buta-1,3-diene and with 2-methylbuta-1,3-diene.Some of the linear tetracyclic adducts were transformed to 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,5,12-trihydroxynaphthacene-6,11-quinone (21) and 2-acetyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,5,12-trihydroxynaphthacene-6,11-quinone (7).The latter has been converted by other workers into 4-demethoxydaunomycinone (48) and 4-demethoxydaunomycin (8).
