P. Demarch et al., CONJUGATE ADDITION OF THIOLS TO P-BENZOQUINONE MONOKETALS - ATTEMPTS TO PREPARE CHIRAL SYNTHETIC EQUIVALENTS OF P-BENZOQUINONE, Anales de quimica, 93(2), 1997, pp. 81-87
The conjugate addition of several thiols to achiral and chiral p-benzo
quinone monoketals has been studied. A chiral synthetic equivalent of
p-benzoquinone has been obtained in both enantiopure forms.
