S. Baily et al. J. C. S. Perkin I (1980) 97, were dissolved in 300 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The mixture was diluted with 30 ml of water and cooled to 0° C. A solution of 17.0 g (0.075 mol) of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone in 150 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise in 10 minutes while stirring thoroughly at a reaction temperature between 0° and 5° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour and evaporated in vacuum. The residue was extracted with methylene chloride. The methylene chloride solution was washed with 200 ml of 0.5N sodium hydroxide solution and evaporated in vacuum. The residue was chromatographed over 500 g of silicagel using ethyl acetate as an eluent. After evaporating the good fraction, the desired ketone was obtained in a yield of 4.6 g (60%) having a melting-point of 172°-173° C.
