title: Air- and moisture-stable p-monothiobenzoquinones incorporated in an octaalkyl-s-hydrindacene skeleton.
abstract: p-Monothiobenzoquinones incorporated in a fused-ring octaalkyl-s-hydrindacene skeleton have been synthesized as air- and moisture-stable reddish orange crystals by the oxidation of mercaptophenol derivatives with DDQ, which have been characterized by X-ray crystallography to show a planar quinoid framework.
