Procedure

A mixture of 74 mg (1.3 mmol) of ground ammonium bifluoride, 174 mg (1.1 mmol) of 1,4-naphthoquinone, and 1 mL of N,N-dimethylformam:ide was treated with 239 mg (1.3 mmol) of triethyltrifluoromethylsilane and stirred vigorously at room temperature for one hour. Gas chromatographic analysis of the reaction mixture showed that the major naphthalene-desired product was 1,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-1-oxo-4-trifluoromethylnaphthalene.
