## Abstract Synthesis of ^14^C‐labelled Lawsone or 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone was achieved by auto‐oxidation of [phenyl‐^14^C(U)]α‐tetralone; the latter was prepared from [^14^C(U)] benzene in a reaction sequence more convenient than reported earlier. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
2,2′4′‐Trichloro‐[ring U‐^14^C]acetophenone 3 was the key intermediate of this synthesis patterned after the industrial route. An unexpected poor yield was observed during the preparation of 3 by the Friedel‐Crafts reaction of chloroacetyl chloride with 1,3‐dichloro‐[U‐^14^C]benzene 10, possibly the result of an isotope effect although this poor yield might be explained by other factors.
Two routes were checked for the preparation of 1,3‐dichloro‐[U‐^14^C]benzene 10. The action of CCL~4~ with 1,3‐dinitro‐[U‐^14^C]benzene at 280°C was entailed with explosions. A safer route started from [U‐^14^C]aniline via 2,4‐dichloro‐[ring U‐^14^C]acetanilide.
Friedel‐Crafts reaction of 10 with acetyl chloride gave rise in 52% yield to 2′,4′‐dichloro‐[ring U‐^14^C]acetophenone 16 which was brominated to 2‐bromo‐2′,4′‐dichloro‐[ring U‐^14^C]acetophenone 17;17 was condensed with 2,2‐(ethylenedioxy)ethylmagnesium bromide to compound 18; 18 was condensed with 1,2,4‐triazole to 5 then successively treated with HCl:water:dioxane and 2,2,2‐trifluoroethanol/HCl. Separation of the two diastereomers by medium pressure liquid chromatography. 7% overall radioactive yield from [U‐^14^C]aniline. Radiochemical purity 99%.
