Abstract
Naphthoquinones are important natural or synthetic compounds belonging to the general class of quinones. Many compounds in this class have become drugs that are on the pharmaceutical market for the treatment of various diseases. A special naphthoquinone derivative is menadione, a synthetic naphthoquinone belonging to the vitamin K group. This compound can be synthesized by different methods and it has a broad range of biological and synthetic applications, which will be highlighted in this review.

Abstract
An indium-mediated isomerization of 1,4-dienols to 1,3-dienols is described. This procedure consists of the addition of pentadienylindium, in a protic solvent, to aldehydes giving the kinetic γ-allylation product in high yields. The subsequent conversion of this γ-allylation product to its thermodynamic 1,3-dienol α-isomer can be achieved by its exposure to indium triflate in the presence of a substoichiometric amount of aldehyde at room temperature. This transformation exhibited moderate to good substrate scope and has been shown to proceed by a 2-oxonia Cope rearrangement.
