Two protocols for the synthesis of methoxy-2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones were investigated in order to evaluate their behavior towards aldehydes under amine-basic conditions. Both the nature of the quinone and aliphatic aldehyde contribute to the viability of this condensation as well as further transformations.
