Addition of organolithium reagents to p-benzoquinones in ether gives the corresponding 4-alkyl-4-hydroxycyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ones.Addition of excess of the reagent to the p-benzoquinones, or to the 4-alkyl-4-hydroxycyclohexa-3,5-dien-1-ones, in tetrahydrofuran, gives the corresponding dialkylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diols.
