Abstract

2- (Alk-2-enyl) -3- (1 -hydroxyalkyl) -1,4-dimethoxynaphthalenes are cyclised and then oxidised to naphtho[2,3-c] pyran-5,lO-quinones which are naturally occurring quinones or their derivatives. ... We recently reported1 the oxidative cyclisation of the naph- ... A' (ll), using cerium(1v) ammonium nitrate (CAN), a ... Published on 01 January 1983. Downloaded by google on 16/02/2016 22:52:15. ...
