Photoredox reactions of quinones are reviewed, that enable C−H bond oxidation at the vicinity of the excited quinone carbonyl and concomitant reduction of the quinone under photoirradiation. Mechanistic insights on the benzo‐, naphtho‐, and anthraquinones are discussed. Also the potential utilities in organic synthesis are described.
Photoreactions of quinones enable unconventional organic transformations. In the course of our synthetic studies on the pluramycin‐class natural products, the authors encountered an intriguing photoreaction of quinones, that is an intramolecular redox process, by which proximal position to the quinone carbonyl is oxidized, while the quinone moiety is reduced to the hydroquinone level. This process...
