About 50 ml of glacial acetic acid was also pumped in the reactor at the end in order to push out all of the reaction solution.Work-up: The mixture is evaporated at the rotavapor in order to reduce the total volume. 300 ml of water (and 3 g of NaCl) were added and the mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 (4×100 ml), dried and the solvent evaporated obtaining a red oil. The red oil was suspended in 400 ml boiling hexane. The soluble phase is separated from the red-black gummy and evaporated under reduced pressure to give 10.7 g of red oil. The yield was 5%.; Example 6-Example 5; Continuous Synthesis of 2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-[1,4]benzoquinone [CoQ0]; The continuous synthesis took place in a continuous flow reactor as described below, and the retention time was only 5 minutes.3,4,5-Trimethoxy toluene (18.2 g, MW 182.21, 0.1 mol), para-toluene sulphonic acid (1.7 g, MW 172.13, 0.01 mol) are dissolved in glacial acetic acid to give a total volume of 50 ml and the solution is connected to the pump 1. Hydrogen peroxide (0.2 mol, MW 34.02, 21.6 ml if H2O2 at 30% and 17.5 ml if H2O2 at 35%) diluted to 50 ml with glacial acetic acid is connected to the pump 1 (second tube). The nitric acid (90%, 0.05 mol, MW 63.02, d 1.49, 3.15 g, 3.5 g solution 90%, 2.35 ml solution 90%) dissolved in acetic acid (to 50 ml) is connected to the pump 2. The pump 1 is pumping approximately 3.8 ml/min for each of the two reagent solutions (total speed flow 7.6 ml/min, i.e. 38 ml reactor volume/5 min RT). Isoversinic tubes (ID 2 mm) was used on the peristaltic pump. The residence time of the reaction was about 5 min (38 ml volume reactor) and the reaction was performed at 75 C. pumping the solutions of the pumps 1. After 5 min the nitric acid solution was pumped at 3.8 ml/min into the second section of the reactor (11 ml, volume reactor) cooled by a cold water circuit.About 50 ml of glacial acetic acid was also pumped in the reactor at the end in order to push out all of the reaction solution.Work-up: similar as in example 5. The yield was 20%.

After heating to 400C, aq. H2O2 (30%, 318g, 2,79 mol) was slowly added, controlling the temperature between 40 and 5O0C. After the addition, the reaction was stirred at 400C for 1 hour. The mixture is extracted twice with dichloromethane (800 g each). The combined organic phases are washed with water (500 g), dried over MgSO4, filtered, evaporated and dried under vacuum, yielding a red oil (40 g) containing the desired 2,3-dimethoxy-6-methyl-1 ,4- benzoquinone as the mayor component).

Mitoquinone-C3 (6). The synthetic route to Mitoquinone-C3 is shown in Fig 2A. The starting material, 2,3, 4,5-tetramethoxytoluene (1) (Lipshutz, B. H., Kim, S. -k., Mollard, P. and Stevens, K. L. (1998) Tetrahedron 54,1241- 1253) was prepared by reducing 2, 3-dimethoxy-5-metliyl-1, 4-benzoquinone (COQO) to the hydroquinol (Carpino, L. A., TRIOLO, S. A. and Berglund, R. A. (1989) J. Org. Chem. 54,3303-3310) followed by methylation to give 1 (Lipshutz, B. H., Kim, S. -k., Mollard, P. and Stevens, K. L. (1998) Tetrahedron 54, 1241-1253). A solution of 1 (6.35 g, 29.9 mmol) in dry hexane (80 mL) and N, N, N', N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (8.6 mL) was placed with a flame- dried stirrer bar in a flame-dried Schlenk tube under nitrogen. A hexane solution of n-butyl lithium (1.6 M, 26.2 mL) was slowly added at room temperature and the mixture was cooled and stirred at 0C for LHR. After being cooled TO-78C, dry tetrahydrofuran (THF; 250 ML) was added, and a small aliquot of the reaction mixture was removed, quenched with D20 and examined BY 1H NMR to assure complete metallation. The yellow suspension was then transferred to a second flame-dried Schlenk tube containing CUCN (0.54 g, 6.03 mmol) under nitrogen at-78C. The mixture was warmed to 0C for 10 mins, then cooled to-78 C and allyl bromide (3.62 mL) was added and the reaction was stirred overnight (19 hrs) and allowed to warm to room temperature. The reaction was quenched with 10% aqueous NH4CL (75 ML), and extracted with ether (2 x 200 mL). The combined ethereal extracts were washed with H20 (2 x 150 mL), 10% aqueous NH40H (200 mL) and saturated aqueous NaCl (200 mL). The organic solvents were dried over MgS04, filtered and the solvent removed by rotary evaporation in vacuo to give a crude product (7.25g).

35% General procedure: To a solution of Coenzyme Q0 1 (1.09 g, 6 mmol) and 11-mono-carboxylic acids 2 or 4 (7.8 mmol) in acetonitrile 40 mL and distilled water 10 mL was added AgNO3 (0.31 g, 1.8 mmol). The mixture was heated to 75 C and a solution of K2S2O8 (3.24 g, 12 mmol) in distilled water 30 mL was added dropwise over 2 h, then the reaction mixture was stirred for another 1 h. The resulting mixture was cooled and extracted with CH2Cl2 and the organic layer was washed with water, then dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by short column chromatograph on silica gel (eluent: PE/EtOAc=3:1 or 5:1) to give idebenone 3 or Coenzyme Q analogues 5.
