five new 1-hydroxy-2-(1-alkyloxymethyl)-9,10-anthraquinones (9a-e) have been prepared. selective nitration of 2-methyl-9,10-anthraquinone, reduction to the corresponding amine, diazotization and treatment by sulfuric acid solution afforded the 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-9,10-anthraquinone in good yield as the key intermediate. reaction with dimethylsulphate/k2co3 and subsequent monobromination with nbs...

A new, efficient and mild approach for the oxidative dehydrogenation of dihydropyrimidinones and thiocyanation of aromatic compounds using 1,1,2,2-tetrahydroperoxy-1,2-diphenylethane (THPDPE) as a terminal oxidant was developed. Initially, various substrates bearing different electron-donating and electron-releasing functionalities were synthesized and next under the optimized reaction conditio...
