Abstract

In boiling pyridine, lapachol (1) is transformed into novel asymmetric naphthoquinone derivative, quadrilone (2), and into dehydro-α-lapachone (3), and adenophyllone (4). Lapachol used in the present study was isolated from the heartwood of Heterophragma quadriloculare and found to be the most abundant naphthoquinone. © 2006 Verlag der Zeitschrift für Naturforschung.
