Abstract
Quinone dimers are readily prepared quantitatively from 2-sulfanyl-1, 4-dimethoxybenzene by oxidative treatment. The oxidative coupling progressed in a highly regioselective manner. Removal of O-protection and subsequent oxidation gave 5, 5′-bis (sulfanylquinone) dimer in good yields. Physical properties of the dimer derivatives are also investigated.
