Naphthotectone is a quinone isolated recently from teak extracts of Tectona grandis. It has been shown to be one of the most abundant compounds and the most active compound isolated form teak. Thus, it has been proposed that naphthotectone is one of the compounds responsible for the allelophathic activity of this plant. An efficient totalsynthesis of (±)-naphthotectone was achieved in seven steps
