The oxidative coupling of a mixture of 1-methoxy-7-methyl-4,5- naphthylenediol and 4-methoxy-7-methyl-1,5-naphthylenediol using lead(IV) oxide gives the symmetrical bisnaphthalene indigos diosindigo A and diosindigo B together with the corresponding unsymmetrical isomer. Oxidation of the first two by nitric acid gives the binaphthyldiquinones mamegakinone and biramentaceone, respectively; the third gives the unsymmetrical diquinone rotundiquinone. Similar oxidations of related naphthylenediols are described.

Mamegakinone (8a), biramentaceone (12a), 3,3'-bijuglone (8b), 2,2-bijuglone (12b) and their methyl ethers were prepared by oxidative coupling of substituted 4-methoxy-1-naphthols; indigoids like 24 are intermediates.Cooxidation of the isomeric dimethoxy-1
