Orientation and relative rate in the isopropylation of 2-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone

Abstract

The orientation and relative rate in the alkylation of 2-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone (1) with isopropyl radicals has been measured. The value of the relative rate accounts well for the large amounts of di- and poly-alkylated products obtained in radical alkylation of quinones in homogeneous systems.
