β¦ Synopsis
2-Methoxy-1,4-benzoquinone can be alkylated selectively with trialkylboranes in position 5, giving high yields of 5-alkyi-2-methoxy-l,4-benzoquinones after oxidative work up. In the case of 2-hydroxy-l,4naphthoquinone, the same procedure leads to 3-alkylated products. A radical chain mechanism is proposed to explain the observed selectivity, o 1999 Elsevier Science Lut.
