Abstract

A telescoped process for the preparation of 2-methoxy-3-methyl-[l,4]benzoquinone is disclosed. When this novel process is compared to the prevailing method that utilizes Na2Cr2O7 as the oxidant, the novel process represents a high yielding (95%), green, and environmentally benign alternative with H2O2 and HNO3 as the oxidants and CH3COOH as the reaction medium.
