Abstract

Results Synthesis and Oxidation Studies. The preparation of 5 and 6 involved Diels-Alder addition of 1, 4-naphthoquinone to the appropriate dienes followed by 0-methylation. Catalytic hydrogenation of 5 provided 4. The photooxygenation of 4, 5, and 6a proceeded smoothly in (11)(a) Baker, AD; Mag, DP; Turner, DW J. Chem. SOC.
