The mixture was then stirred for 15 min and subsequently subjected to a steam distillation. The distillate was extracted three times with a total of 400 ml of methylene chloride. The organic phase was shaken with aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and then with water, separated from the aqueous phase, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to dryness to yield 11.8 g (87%) of 2,3-dimethylbenzoquinone in the form of a yellow powder. Melting point 57°-59° C.
