Abstract

Methyl benzoquinone carboxylate and its 5‐methoxy‐ and 6‐methoxy‐derivatives condense smoothly with β‐methoxynaphthalene in an acid catalysed reaction to give α‐arylsubstituted naphthalenes 7, which, after reduction, methylation and intramolecular acylation yield tri‐and tetramethoxylated 7 H‐Benz[d, e]anthracene‐7‐ones 9. Partial degradation by means of chromic acid or permanganate leads to a regiospecific synthesis of a substituted phenalenone (10) and/or methoxy‐anthraquinone‐1‐carboxylic acids. Phthalid anion has been added on to methyl methoxy benzoquinone carboxylate to yield the adducts 4.
