Synthesis of 9,10-phenanthrenequinones by photocyclization of derivatives of benzoins: Scope and limitation of the methodology

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919808003073

Symmetric 9,10-phenanthrenequinones with methyl, methoxy, and chloro substituents at the 3 and 6 positions have been synthesized by photocyclization of 4,5-bis-(aryl)-2-phenyl-1,3,2-dioxaboroles and 2,3- diarydioxenes followed by oxidative hydrolysis.
