Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of hydroquinone Q-1 (10 g, 90.90 mmol) in MTBE (methyl tert-butyl ether) (100 mL) at −5° C. was added bromine (17.4 g, 90.90 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min. Solvent was removed in vacuo and the crude product was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, 2% MeOH—CHCl3) to afford compound Q-2 (13 g, 75%) as a solid. TLC Rf=0.6 (CHCl3-MeOH, 9:1); 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 6.94 (app d, 1H), 6.88 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 1H), 6.72 (dd, J=8.7, 2.8 Hz, 1H), 5.19 (s, 2H) (Synlett 2000, 11, 1561-1564).
