Abstract

Abstract The reactions of π-benzoquinone (BQ) with alkylaluminium compounds of the R 3 Al (R= Et, i-Bu) and RAlCl 2 (R= Me, Et, i-Bu) type have been investigated. It was found that hydroquinone and a respective alkylhydroquinone are formed after hydrolysis, from the reaction of BQ with R 3 Al; hydroquinone and a respective p-alkoxyphenol are formed from reaction of BQ with RAlCl 2 (R= Et, i-Bu). In addition to the products mentioned in the ...
