Oxidation of aliphatic side chains in anthracene Diels-Alder adducts
An efficient oxidation of methyl and primary side chains of anthracene Diels Alder adducts with KMnO4 is reported. The oxidation leaves the bridgehead methines intact providing Diels-Alder adducts of anthracenecarboxylic acids. Retro Diels-Alder reaction allows for the preparation of the parent anthracenecarboxylic acids.
