Dehydrogenation with high potential quinones has been extended to dihydro derivatives of non-aromatic hydrocarbons using 7,12-dihydropleiadenes as models. Reaction of 7-phenyl-7,12-dihydropleiadene with high potential quinones resulted in dehydrogenative cyclization whereas preparative scale and rate studies in 9-aryl-9,10-dihydroanthracenes gave no evidence of aryl participation during quinone dehydrogenation due to geometrical restrictions on this system.
使用高电位醌类化合物的脱氢反应已经扩展到非芳香烃类的二氢衍生物,使用7,12-二氢蒽烯作为模型。7-苯基-7,12-二氢蒽烯与高电位醌类化合物的反应导致了脱氢环化,而在9-芳基-9,10-二氢蒽烯的制备规模和速率研究中,并未发现芳基在醌类化合物脱氢过程中参与,这是由于该体系的几何限制所致。
