In spite of their decreased polarity with respect to previously studied electron-rich analogues, monooxygenated dienes also react regiospecifically with halo quiñones. The corresponding adducts can easily be aromatized on silica gel to isomeric polysubstituted naphthoquinones of unambiguousstructure and therefore provide ready access to substrates for subsequent regiospecific annulations. The scope of this approach is illustrated by advantageous syntheses of several natural products: chimaphilin, 6-methylalizarin, 6-methylxanthopurpurin, and barleriaquinone. The adducts can also give rise to a series of products in which theoxygen function of the dienes is preserved as a hydroxyl group in the quinone. To this end adducts derived from 1-oxygenated dienes and halo quiñones were oxidized effectively with Jones’ reagent while those obtainedfrom the 2-oxygenatedisomers responded better to manganese dioxide. Relative positions of substituents in the adducts were readily confirmed by comparison of some of the hydroxylated oxidation products with known compounds of unambiguousstructure. The method is again illustrated by the ready synthesis of a number of natural products including plumbagin, soranjidiol, isochrysophanol and its 8-methyl ether, and isozyganein and its 5-methyl ether.
