Rearrangement of the adduct (1) in pyridine and methanol gave 2-acetyl-5, 8-dihydro-6-methyl- 1,4-dihydroxynaphthalene (2). Silver oxide oxidation of the rearranged product (2) gave 2-acetyl-5,8-dihydro- 6-methyl- 1,4naphthalenedione (3). Regioselective addition of trans-piperylene to this compound (3) gave the c&esponding adduct (4). Treatment of the resulting cycloadduct (4) with manganese dioxide gave the regiospecific 1,6- dimethyl-9, 10-anthracenedione (5). Each of the foregoing reactions proceeds in high yield}, keywords = {}, url = {https://jsciences.ut.ac.ir/article_31252.html}, eprint = {https://jsciences.ut.ac.ir/article_31252_63ff1be82cae7709c98cda1cdcb6a90a.pdf} }
