A. Takuwa et al., Regioselective allylation of 1,2-naphthoquinones using photoaddition reaction with allylsilanes: Synthesis of 3-allyl-1,2-naphthoquinones, SYNTHESIS-S, (1), 2001, pp. 63-68
The photochemical reaction of 1,2-naphthoquinones with allylsilanes affords
[3+2]photocycloadducts. which are converted to 3-allyl-1,2-naphthoquinones
in moderate to good overall yields by treatment with boron trifluoride, am
monium cerium(IV) nitrate or tetrabutylammonium fluoride.
