2-methoxy-6-heptadecyl-1,4-benzoquinone (dihydroirisquinone, pallasone B; 4) were synthesized by a simple protocol involving microwave accelerated Claisen rearrangement of allyl ethers 10, followed by hydrogenation of the side chain alkene, and oxidation to the quinone. The Claisen-based methodology was extended to the first synthesis of the marine benzoquinones verapliquinones A and B (5 and 6), and panicein A
