This paper presents the synthesis of 1‐ 13 C‐ and 4‐ 13 C‐plastoquinone‐9 and their characterization with NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The synthetic scheme has been further adapted to introduce 13 C‐labeled plastoquinones on all individual and on each combination of positions in the quinone ring. Also a two‐step scheme is disclosed to prepare unlabeled plastoquinone‐9. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2002)
