Abstract

Abstract Based on the oxidation of 1, 5-naphthalenediol (4) and 6-bromo-2-naphthol (9) via Teuber reaction, an efficient synthesis of 5, 6-dimethoxy-1-naphthol (1) and 5, 6-dimethoxy-2- naphthol (2) was achieved with high overall yield (16% for 1 and 25% for 2). The key steps of the synthetic strategy involved the oxidation of naphthols (4 and 9) to the corresponding naphthoquinones (5 and 10) and the conversion of 5, 6-dimethoxy-2-naphthaldehyde to 5, ...
