Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Hydroquinone | HCID 785 | — |
| Reactant | Bis(p-methoxyphenyl) telluroxide | HCID 3044917 | — |
| Solvent | Chloroform | HCID 6212 | — |
| Product | Quinone | HCID 4650 | 65% |
| Product | Benzene, 1,1'-tellurobis[4-methoxy- | HCID 4605422 | 4% |
Reaction Steps
Hydroquinone (55 mg, 0.50 mmol) and bis-(p-methoxyphenyl)-telluroxide (196 mg, 0.55 mmol) were stirred in chloroform (2 ml) at room temperature under argon for 16 h. Separation of the reaction components by p.l.c. (benzene-ethyl acetate 9:1) gave bis-(p-methoxyphenyl)-telluride (8 mg, 4%) and p-benzoquinone (35 mg, 65%) as yellow needles m.p. 114°-115° (lit., 115.7°).
