“…28 Interestingly, this reaction is possible even for phenols that first produce in situ the corresponding o quinones. This approach involving Cu 2+ complexes with secondary amine has been successfully employed for the synthesis of such dialkylamino o quinones which are quinoline, indole, acridine, isoquinoline, quinoxaline, benzofuran, and benzothiazole derivatives (Scheme 13) (see Refs 28,29).…”
