Synthesis of hemitectol, tectol, and tecomaquinone i
Cadelis, Melissa M.,Barker, David,Copp, Brent R.
, p. 2939 - 2942 (2013/03/13)
The first total syntheses of Tectona grandis (teak) natural products hemitectol and tectol are described. The observation of spontaneous dimerisation of hemitectol to tectol suggests the monomer is the true natural product and that the dimer is an artifact of isolation.

A Revised Structure for Dehydrotectol and Tecomaquinone I
Khanna, Rajinda N.,Sharma, Pavan K.,Thomson, Ronald H.
, p. 1821 - 1824 (2007/10/02)
Tecomaquinone I and dehydrotectol are identical but the published structures are wrong.The revised structure is 3,10-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-10-(2-methylprop-1-enyl)naphthopyrano-naphtholpyran-11,16-quinone (5).Previous work is reinterpreted on this basis.
