(Diacetoxyiodo)benzene oxidises quinols and extended quinols to the corresponding quinones smoothly and in high yield.Excess of the reagent in methanol with monohydric phenols directly yields p-quinone ketals, also in good yields. 4-Alkyl and 4-alkoxyphenols give the corresponding 4-alkyl-4-methoxycyclohexadienones and 4-alkoxy-4-methoxycyclohexadienones.
