Quinones and their imine counterparts constitute a class of highly electrophilic and dearomatized synthon. Their preparation and synthetic applications are challenged by limited stability due to the tendency of dimerization/polymerization and hydrolysis. By taking a biomimetic catalytic oxidation strategy, we have developed oxidation systems comprising metal catalysts and green terminal oxidants that realized in situ oxidation of phenols and reactivity modulation of labile quinone intermediates. This has led to the establishment of several [3+2], [3+3] and [4+2] cycloadditions and control of their regioselectivity and stereoselectivity. In this account, our recent advances in reactivity modulation of labile quinones/quinone imines and their biomimetic catalytic transformations are summarized.

Key words: catalytic oxidation, biomimetic catalysis, relay catalysis, cycloaddition reaction, green synthesis, sustainable chemistry
