Application
1,4-Naphthoquinone is the key structural moiety of many anticancer and antifungal agents.
It can be used to synthesize:
Additional appilcation include:
It can be used to synthesize:
- 3,3-Disubstituted oxindoles via asymmetric Michael addition to oxindole.
- Bioactive isoindolines via asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to azomethine ylides generated in situ from aldehydes and diethyl aminomalonate.
- α,α-Difluoro-β-hydroxy ketone via ‘on water′ catalyst-free Mukaiyama-aldol reaction with difluoroenoxysilane.
- 2-Hydroxy-3-anilino-1,4-naphthoquinone, which shows potent in vivo antimalarial activity.
Additional appilcation include:
- As an arylation reagent for the α-arylation of aldehydes.
- As a starting material in the multi-step synthesis of benz[f]indole-4,9-diones.

In their inhibition-inducing interactions with enzymes, quinones primarily utilize two mechanisms, arylation and oxidation of enzyme thiol groups. In this work, we investigated the interactions of 1,4-naphthoquinone with urease in an effort to estimate the contribution of the two mechanisms

The use of 1,4-naphthoquinone as an advantageous pre-column reagent for liquid chromatography analysis of aliphatic thiol compounds is proposed. The compound reacts selectively in mild conditions (5 min at room temperature; pH 7.5) with thiol function. The resulting adducts were
