The synthesis of 2-methyl-, 2,5-dimethyl-, and 2-isopropyl-7,7'-8,8'-tetracyanoquinodimethanes was realized from 2-methyl-, 2,5-dimethyl-, and 2-isopropyl-1,4-cyclohexanediones.These cyclic diketones are obtained with good yields by the Birch reduction of 2-chloromethyl-, 2,5-dichloromethyl-, and 2-isopropyl-1,4-dimethoxybenzenes.
