unexpected 1,4‐diketo tautomeric form of 2‐hydroxyhydronaphthoquinone as a stable intermediate. Similar 1,4‐diketo tautomers of hydronaphthoquinones were established as products of the NADPH‐dependent enzymatic reduction of other 1,4‐naphthoquinones, and as substrates for different members of the superfamily of short‐chain dehydrogenases. We propose an essential role of hydroquinone diketo tautomers in
