Participants

Reaction Steps

The reaction was conducted using a solution of p-benzoquinone and each of the above-mentioned butadiene derivatives in benzene under heating and refluxing conditions for four hours. The resulting compounds were dissolved in ethanol, in which was suspended a palladium catalyst adsorbed on alumina. Thereafter, hydrogen gas was blown into the solution for 2 hours while keeping the temperature of the solution at 20° C. to obtain dodecahydro-9,10-anthraquinone derivatives.
