A series of 1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives of lawsone (1), 6-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (2), and juglone (3) were synthesized by alkylation, acylation, and sulfonylation reactions. The yields of lawsone derivatives 1a-1k (type A), 6-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoqui

A new perspective on the reactivity of hydroxyquinones was revealed as an acetal derivative of lawsone was synthesized, isolated, and used in tandem Knoevenagel/hetero-Diels-Alder reactions catalyzed by S-proline. The intermediate alkylidene-1,3-diones that were formed in situ reacted with electron rich alkenes to predominantly afford pyrano-1,2-naphthoquinone (β-lapachone) derivatives along with the isomeric pyrano-1,4-naphthoquinone (α-lapachone) derivatives in high to excellent total yields. Interestingly, the highly reactive arylidene-1,3-dione derivatives were found to be stable and isolable. DFT calculations suggest that these hetero-Diels-Alder reactions have a high polar character, taking place through a two-stage one-step mechanism. An analysis of the conceptual DFT indices allows explaining the remarkable site-selectivity observed.

To explore further the practical uses of highly active manganese (Mn?), a variety of alcohols were treated with Mn?, and the resulting complexes were coupled with acid chlorides and/or acetic anhydride in the absence of any extra catalyst. The subsequent reactions took place smoothly under mild conditions, providing the corresponding O-acylation products in good to excellent isolated yields.

A detailed study of the lead tetraacetate-acetic acid oxidation of 1-naphthol, 4-acetoxy-1-naphthol, 2-methyl-1-naphthol, 2,3-dimethyl-1-naphthol and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9-anthrol (17) has been carried out.In the case of 1-naphthol the major product was 4-acetoxy-1-naphthol (4), with 2,2-diacetoxynaphthalen-1(2H)-one (2) being the only other product formed in significant yield.Attack at C4 was again the main reaction with 4-acetoxy-1-naphthol, which gave 1,4-naphthoquinone as the major product.Acetoxylation occurred predominantly at C2 with 2-methyl-1-naphthol and 2,3-dimethyl-1-naphthol to give the naphthalen-1(2H)-ones (11) and (12) respectively.In both cases minor amounts of 4-acetoxylated derivatives and quinones were also produced. 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-9-anthrol (17) gave an analogous set of products, the yields of which showed as unusual concentration dependence.In dilute solution 10-acetoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9-anthrol (19) was produced in high yield, whereas with a high substrate concentration a good yield of 9a-acetoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroanthracen-9(9aH)-one (18) was obtained.
OXYGENATION OF AROMATIC AND ALIPHATIC HYDROCARBONS BY A NEW REAGENT SYSTEM, Fe(CH3CN)6(2+)-H2O2-Ac2O: AN EFFECTIVE MODEL REAGENT FOR MONO-OXYGENASE

Reactions of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons with a new system, Fe(CH3CN)6(2+) - H2O2 - Ac2O in CH3CN, gave oxygenation products with fairly high reaction efficiency ( Tables I and II )compared to known to reagent systems used as enzyme models for mono-oxygenases.Investigations of the mechanism of these reactions indicated the involvement of either complex C.FeIV(OH)(OAc)(2+), or complex D, FeIV(OAc)(2+), dependig on the organic substrate.Keywords-oxygenation; aromatic hydrocarbon; aliphatic hydrocarbon; hexakisacetonitrile iron(II) perchlorate; hydrogen peroxide; enzyme model; mono-oxygenase
