Concise formal total synthesis of hybocarpone and related naturally occurring naphthazarins

A concise formal total synthesis of the cytotoxic bisnaphthazarin derivative hybocarpone has been completed through the development of routes to the synthetic precursor, 3-ethyl-2-hydroxy-5,7,8-trimethoxy-6-methyl-1,4- naphthoquinone. The oxidation of 3-e

REACTIONS OF KETENE ACETALS-14; THE USE OF SIMPLE MIXED VINYLKETENE ACETALS IN THE ANNULATION OF QUINONES

α,β- and β,γ-unsaturated esters can be converted by strong base and chlorotrimethylsilane to the corresponding mixed vinylketene acetals which are shown to be particularly useful and generally applicable reagents for the regiospecific annulation of halogenoquinones.The reaction proceeds readily with a variety of substrates including benzoquinones.
