If catechol or other hydroquinones are dehydrogenated in the presence of a nucleophilic reagent, the latter reacts, usually by Michael addition, with the quinone formed in situ. The wide range of possible variations offered by this synthetic method is comprehensively described in the present paper. procedures are given for carrying out typical reactions.
