Dimeric Naphthoquinones, XVIII. - Ammonium Cerium(IV) Nitrate as Oxidising Agent: peri-Hydroxylation of Juglones giving Naphthazarins

5,8-Dialkoxy-1-naphthols (type 6a) which are easily accessible starting from juglones (5a) are oxidised under mild conditions using ammonium cerium(IV) nitrate, yielding with high p-selectivity the corresponding 1,4-naphthoquinones (7a).By dealkylation of the latter, substituted 1,8-dihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones (1a) are obtained in good yields.
Dimeric Naphthoquinones, IX. - Isodiospyrin and Elliptinone. - Synthesis of 6,6'-Dimeric Bijuglones by Phenol Oxidation
Laatsch, Hartmut
, p. 319 - 339 (2007/10/02)
Oxidative coupling of the naphthol 37a gave the potential natural product 7,7'-dimethyl-6,6'-bijuglone (5) and, in lower yield, isodiospyrin (21).Regiospecific syntheses of 5, elliptinone (10), and 6,6'-bijuglone (45a) were achieved by phenol oxidation of suitable substituted p-chloronaphthols.
