โฆ Synopsis
Paulownin and gmelinol react with DDQ to give 4-pyrone derivatives. Gummadiol reacts under the same conditions to give a pyrone aldehyde and an unsaturated y-lactone. 2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) has been previously shown to react with lignans of the monoarylidene-butyrolactone and aryl-tetralin series. 1,2 We have now studied the reactions of this reagent with paulownin (L),3-5 gmelinol (z)5-7 and gummadiol (3),8,g three lignans belonging to the 2,6-diaryl-3,7-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octane series. 10
