Hi all:
Recently I got a problem with the hydrolysis of
2,5-dichloro-3,6-bisindolyl-1,4-benzoquinones. Other
researchers have reported successful hydrolysis of
2,5-dichloro-3,6-diphenyl-1,4-benzoquinones with
sodoium hydroxide (or potassium hydroxide) in a
mixture of methanol (or ethanol) and water. But I got
a messy mixture for my compounds if they don't have
2-substitutes on both indoles. If you can give me any
suggestion or ideas, I would deeply appreciate.
Best regards,
Yufa Liu, Ph.D.
