Two novel approaches toward prenylated quinones are described.The first (route A) involves the following three basic operations: (a) construction of a 4-hydroxybenzylamine carrying a tertiary allyl alcohol (cinnamyl alcohol) side chain of appropriate leng
Prenylation of methoxyhydroquinone in aqueous acid solution and an alternative synthesis of precocene II

The acid-catalyzed condensation of methoxyhydroquinone with 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol leads to 2-methoxy-5-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)hydroquinone (4) and 2-(1,1-dimethylallyl)-5-methoxyhydroquinone (7).Compound 4 can easily be converted into precocene II (1, R=Me).
