Selective oxidation of 3,5-disubstituted 1-naphthols to the corresponding p-quinones is achieved using active MnO2.A facile synthesis of juglone (III) by the oxidation of 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene by active MnO2 is also reported.It is observed that very good yields of 1,4-quinones are obtained when the starting phenols are 3,5-disubstituted.
