The reaction of N-alkyl-p-hydroxyanilinobenzoquinones 1 a-d, its acetylderivatives 1 a1-c1 and the methoxyderivative 1 a2 with diazomethan yields in dependence on the reaction-conditions the indazolquinones 2 a-d, 2 a1-c1 or 2 a2, the 1-methylindazolquinones 3 a-d and 3 a1-c1, and finally the methoxy-1-methylindazolquinones 5 a-d.The 2-methyl-isomers 6 a-d are formed only in small amounts.Methylation of 2a with dimethylsulfate gives 5a and 6a in the ratio of appr. 2 to 1.Acetylation of 2 a-d with acetanhydride leads to the N-O-acetylderivates, which are easily hydrolyzed to 2 a1-d1 during work up; 3 a-d yields 3 a1-d1.The structures are established by the described crossexperiments and by spectroscopy (UV/VIS, IR, NMR). - Keywords: Anilinobenzoquinones, reaction with diazomethane; Indazolquinones; Tautomerism
