Bi(OTf)3-catalyzed allylation of quinones with allyltrimethylsilane
Yadav,Reddy,Swamy

p-Quinones react smoothly with allyltrimethylsilane in the presence of 2 mol% of Bi(OTf)3 under mild reaction conditions to afford the corresponding allyl substituted benzene derivatives, p-allylquinols and allyl substituted 1,4-naphthoquinones in excellent yields with high regioselectivity. This method is very useful for the direct introduction of an allyl functionality onto a quinone moiety.
929. Chrom-3-en-6-ols. The action of pyridine on alk-2-enyl-benzoquinones

Allylbenzoquinones are converted by treatment with pyridine into quinols and chrom-3-en-6-ols. The tendency for the latter reaction to occur increases as the benzoquinone ring becomes more highly substituted.
