Improved Synthesis of 1,4-Phenanthrenequinones from Diels-Alder Cycloadditions of 2-(p-Tolylsulfinyl)-1,4-benzoquinone
摘要:
A wide range of substituted 1,4-phenanthrenequinones 5a-g and benz[c]- and benz[a]-1,4-phenanthrenequinones (5h) and (5i) were synthezised in one step through Diels-Alder cycloadditions of 2-(p-tolylsulfinyl)-1,4-benzoquinone 2 and vinylaromatic derivatives 1a-i under thermal and high pressure conditions in moderate to good yields (33-80%).

the 1,4-hydroquinone and 1,4-dihydroxynaphthalene, the stable tautomers for the [4] and [6]helicenes were the aromatic diketones. These experimental results were corroborated by calculations. Additional calculations showed that these tautomeric species were indeed the stable forms of 1,4 and 1,3-hydroquinones when present in larger aromatics, in drastic contrast with 1,2-dihydroxy-aromatics (known as

Thiazyl chlorides in a simple one-step procedure fuse 1,2,5-thiadiazole rings to quinones. So do alkyl carbamates mixed with excess thionyl chloride and pyridine. Evidence is put forward to support the hypothesis that NSCl or a related thiazyl derivative is the reactive species that brings about the transformations. Selenoyl chloride mixed with an alkyl carbamate, pyridine, and quinones similarly gives 1,2,5-selenodiazoloquinones. Thionyl chloride in pyridine chlorinates quinones and oxidizes hydroquinones. 2,3-Dichloro-1,4-quinones with S4N4 or. with alkyl N-sulfinylcarbamates give 1,2,5-thiadiazoloquinones. Quinones and their 2 3-dichloro derivatives with TsNSO in pyridine give betaine derivatives of 2,3-diaminoquinones, which pyrrolidine converts into 2-amino-3(tosylamino)quinones. A unified set of mechanisms is presented that accounts for these transformations.
