A novel Pt/C‐catalyzed transfer hydrogenation reaction of p‐benzoquinone to produce p‐hydroquinone using cyclohexanone as an unexpectedly effective hydrogen source

A new method for the production of p‐hydroquinone via a Pt/C‐catalyzed reduction of p‐benzoquinone is developed. Different from the conventional transfer hydrogenation reactions that usually use secondary alcohols such as isopropanol as the hydrogen source, in this work, it is unexpectedly found that cyclohexanone is a more effective hydrogen source than secondary alcohols, even cyclohexanol. This reaction affords acceptable yields of p‐hydroquinone with very high turnover number (1109) of the Pt/C catalyst. A mechanism of this interesting reaction is proposed on the basis of the results of a series of control experiments, GC–MS analysis as well as dynamic studies.     

Tertiary amines as vinyl source for the formations of aryl or pyrrole ring on amido-substitued 1,4-quinone with the assistance of palladium salt

The one-pot synthesis of 3-isopropyl-6-methyl-1H-benzo[f]indole-4,9-dione ( 3e ), N-(4-[isopentylamino]-3,6-dioxocyclohexa-1,4-dien-1-yl)acetamide ( 4d ), 2-(isopentylamino)-6-methylnaphthalene-1,4-dione ( 5b ), and 2-(4-acetamido-3,6-dioxocyclohexa-1,4-dien-1-yl)-N,N-diisopentyl-3-methylbutanamide ( 6a ) has been achieved via either pyrrol/aryl ring formations or amination reactions from the Pd(II)-catalyzed reaction of N-(3,6-dioxocyclohexa-1,4-dien-1-yl)acetamide ( 2a_BQ ) and in the presence of triisopentylamine. More 3 -, 4 -, 5 -, and 6 -like derivatives were obtained while other trialkylamines were used. Crystal structures of 3d_O , 3e , 4b , 4c , 4d , 5b, and 6a were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The 3 - and 5 -like products reveal the formations of newly generated benzene rings with/without substitutions. The formation of 6a also implies an unusual reaction pathway of its generation. Based on the structural conformations of various 3 -like products, as well as 6a , mechanisms were proposed to account for the formations of these compounds. Various fascinating conformations of products observed in this work demonstrate the diversities of this type of reactions.     

Palladium‐Catalyzed Direct CH Functionalization of Benzoquinone

A direct Pd‐catalyzed C? H functionalization of benzoquinone (BQ) can be controlled to give either mono‐ or disubstituted BQ, including the installation of two different groups in a one‐pot procedure. BQ can now be directly functionalized with aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, and cycloalkene groups and, moreover, the reaction is conducted in environmentally benign water or acetone as solvents.     

Two selective HPTLC methods for determination of some angiotensin II receptor antagonists in tablets and biological fluids

Two simple, selective, precise and highly sensitive high‐performance thin‐layer chromatography (HPTLC) methods have been developed and validated for analysis of five angiotensin II receptor antagonists, namely losartan, irbesartan valsartan, candesartan and olmesartan, which are widely used in clinical practice. HPTLC of the drugs was performed on pre‐coated silica gel HPTLC plates 60 F₂₅₄ by development using a mobile phase composed of chloroform–acetone–glacial acetic acid (7.8:1.5:0.7m v/v/v), which was suitable for all of the studied drugs. The first method depended on utilizing reflectance/fluorescence mode for detection while the second method depended on using 2,3,5,6‐tetrachloro‐1,4‐benzoquinone as spraying reagent for the first time to form orange spots scanned at 460 nm. A good linear relationship was obtained over the concentration ranges of 1.2–60 and 360–3000 ng/band while detection and quantification limits were in the ranges of 0.07–0.43, 45.2–140.49 and 0.21–1.29, 137.05–425.74 ng/band for reflectance/fluorescence and reflectance/absorbance methods respectively. The developed methods were applied successfully for their determination in tablets and spiked human plasma for reflectance/fluorescence method with good accuracy and precision, and so can be applied in the pharmacokinetic and bioavailability studies.

Manganese Detection Using Stencil‐printed Carbon Ink Electrodes on Transparency Film

Mn concentrations were determined using square‐wave cathodic stripping voltammetry (CSV) with inexpensive, stencil‐printed carbon ink electrodes generated on polypropylene transparency films. Using an optimized pH 5 ammonium acetate buffer and addition of 1,4‐benzoquinone, a detection limit as low as 500 nM (30 ppb) was achieved. Addition of 1,4‐benzoquinone improved peak potential reproducibility and height, while addition of 3.5 % w/w sodium chloride to the background solution approximately doubled the sensitivity (μA/ppm). Tolerance tests with interfering metals were conducted and the method was found to be resilient to chromium(VI), iron(III), magnesium(II), nickel(II), and zinc(II), but susceptible to aluminum(III), copper(II), iron(II), and lead(II) at concentration ratios at or below one. This technique was successfully used to measure Mn levels in yerba mate and green tea samples as an example application.     

Reaction of N,N-diarylamidines with 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone

A synthesis of 5,11b-dihydro-1H-dibenzo[d,f][1,3]diazepin-1-ones was found in the reaction of nitro-substituted N¹,N²-diarylamidines with 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone. In contrast, 6,7,8,9-tetrachlorodibenzodioxins were obtained from reaction of N¹,N²-diphenylpropionamidine and N¹,N²-di-(4-tert-butylphenyl)acetamidine with 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone.     

Rhodium-catalyzed [2+2+1+1] cyclocarbonylative coupling of alkynes with carbon monoxide affording tetrasubstituted p-benzoquinones

In this strategy, the tetrasubstituted benzoquinones have been prepared directly by a [2+2+1+1] cyclocarbonylative coupling reaction of internal alkynes with CO in the presence of [RhCl(CO)2]2. The low concentration of CO in the reaction is the crucial point for the chemoselective formation of tetrasubstituted benzoquinones in good to high yields. Functional groups such as chloro, methoxy, cyano, vinyl, fluoro, and carboxylate are tolerated under the reaction conditions.     

Structures and Magnetic Properties of Two Copper(II) Complexes with 2,5‐Dichloro‐3,6‐Dihydroxy‐1,4‐Benzoquinone Dianionic and Tetrachloroquinone Ligand

The polynuclear copper(II) complex [Cu₂(Hdpa)₂(μ‐ClDHBQ)(ClO₄)₂]_n, 1 is bridged by ClDHBQ^?2 (2,5‐dichloro‐3,6‐dihydroxy‐1,4‐benzoquinone dianionic) and 2,2′‐dipyridylamine (Hdpa). In the axial position, Cu is connected with the oxygen atom of ClO. The perchlorate anion may be envisaged as a monodentate O‐bound ligand. Through the bond bridge of O–Cu … O–Cl, the binuclear compound [Cu₂(Hdpa)₂(μ‐ClDHBQ)(ClO₄)₂] is strung together into a long chain compound. Tetrachlorocatechol underwent partial oxidation/hydrolysis/dechlorination processes to produce ClDHBQ^?2. The other mononuclear complex [Cu(Hdpa)(TeCQ)](DMF), 2 , in which tetrachloroquinone (TeCQ) was produced by oxidation of tetrachlorocatechol (TeCC), therefore complex 2 is in the quinone form. The magnetic susceptibility measurements show antiferromagnetic coupling with J = ?11.9 cm^?1, θ = 2.6 K, and g = 2.05 for complex 1. Complex 2 exhibits the typical paramagnetic behavior of s = 1/2.
