β¦ Synopsis
The Reactions of 3,6-Di-tert-butyl-1,2-benzoquinone and 3,6-Ditert-butylcatechol with tert-Butyl Hydroperoxide.
-The reaction of the title quinone (I) as well as its corresponding catechol with tert-butyl hydroperoxide in aprotic solvents results in ring oxidation accompanied by ring expansion furnishing hydroxydiketone (II) and oxacyloheptadienone (III) as the major products. Product ratio and degree of conversion depend on the concrete experimental conditions. A reaction scheme including both radical and molecular steps is proposed.
