The tandem synthesis of naphthoquinones was conducted from the reaction of laccase-generated quinones and acyclic dienes via Diels-Alder reaction. This reaction was carried out under mild condition in aqueous medium and yielded naphthoquinones up to 80%. In addition, the effect of solvent was also investigated and water was shown to be optimal for this reaction.
