An isolable o-quinodimethane and its fixation of molecular oxygen to give an endoperoxide

Abstract

Addition of the germene Mes2Ge[double bond, length as m-dash]CR2 to 1,4-naphthoquinone yields a singular o-quinodimethane which gives Diels–Alder reactions at room temperature and reacts cleanly with oxygen to form an endoperoxide.
