Abstract
Reaction of 4,4-dimethoxycyclohexa-2,5-dienone with dimethylsulphoxonium methylide and subsequent hydrolysis gave exclusively syn-bishomoquinone. An attempted double addition of carbene to 3,3,6,6-tetramethoxycyclohexa-1,4-diene produced 1,4-dimethoxybenzene. 1,2,4-trimethoxybenzene, and 2,2′,4,5,5′-pentamethoxybiphenyl.Keywords
