Abstract

Isodihydrofutoquinol A has been synthesized starting from 4-benzyloxy-2-methoxy-acetophenone, wherein the 2,5-cyclohexadienone moiety has been constructed efficiently by means of electrochemical method. Isodihydrofutoquinol A has been further converted into isofutoquinol A and B through futoquinol. In addition, the stereostructure of isofutoquinol A has been unambiguously determined on the basis of an X-ray crystallographic analysis.
