Steric strain in the C=N-C fragment in 3,5-disubstituted N-acyl-1,4-benzoquinone monoimines, unlike their N-arylsulfonyl analogs, leads to increase of the C=N-C angle above 130A degrees or twisting of the double C=N bond and loss of planarity of the quinoid ring. This structural transformation enhances the reactivity of the C=N bond so that 1,2-addition of alcohols becomes possible with formation of sterically unstrained cyclohexadienone structure with sp (3)-hybridized C-4 carbon atom.
