dc.description.abstract5,8-Diacetoxy-2-acetyl-3,4-dihydronaphthalene, prepared by a new route from the Diels–Alder adduct of buta-1,3-diene and p-benzoquinone, is selectively deacetylated (Cs2CO3 in tetrahydrofuran or K2CO3 in dimethyl sulphoxide) to intermediates suitable for use in chiral anthracycline synthesis.
