Procedure
A solution of 314 mg of 2,3-di(n-propyl)-6,13-pentacenequinone dissolved in 60 mL of THF was added to 6 mL of a 1 mol/1000 mL THF solution of lithium triethylborohydride, and the mixture was heated for 20 hours under reflux in a nitrogen atmosphere. The resulting solution was neutralized with diluted aqueous hydrochloric acid, and the organic phase was separated, concentrated and dried under a vacuum to produce 6,13-dihydro-6,13-dihydroxy-2,3-di(n-propyl)pentacene almost stoichiometrically.
