Notes:
Reaction of 2-Amino-2-cyclopenten-1-one Derivatives with p-Benzoquinones, IIN-Aryl-α-ketoenamine 2a reacts with methyl-p-benzoquinone 1a to yield the hydroquinone adduct 3a. This is oxidized to the stable quinone 5a, which is cyclisized to indolequinone 4 and the quinonoid heterocyclus 6a. Compounds 6a and 4 are reduced and acetylated to hydroquinones 9a and 7, respectively. The path of the reaction is discussed. Reaction of 1b and 2b yields directly quinone 6b.
