Abstract

Abstract New method for the synthesis of benzo- and naphthoquinone derivatives involving coenzyme Q and vitamins K1 and K2 is provided which comprises reacting a pi -allyl-type halonickel complex compound with 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-halo-benzoquinone or 2-methyl-3-halo-1,4-naphthoquinone in an organic solvent. Beneficial advantage of the method relies upon its simplicity of the reaction step with high yield of the desired products.
