Abstract
A series of new potential electron transfer mediators, 2-substituted 1,4-benzoquinone derivatives bearing an arylamino group with various substituents in o-, m- and p-positions of an aromatic ring were synthesised by adding a solution of aniline derivatives in aqueous acetic acid to an aqueous solution of 1,4-benzoquinone. The structure and properties of synthesised compounds were investigated by NMR spectroscopy methods in detail. The redox ability of 2-arylamino-1,4-benzoquinone derivatives has been estimated by calculations of quantum chemical structure– activity relationship (QSAR) descriptors within the framework of density functional theory.
