17 We have determined the E/Z ratio of RCM products 16–19 (Figure 2), based on ¹H NMR spectral data. In most of the cases, we observed E-configured compounds as the major product; this assumption was based on our earlier experience on cyclophane derivatives. See reference 11i.

CH₂Cl₂ (25 mL) was added and the bis-alkylated derivative 13c dissolved in CH₂Cl₂ (2 mL) was added dropwise. At the conclusion of the reaction (TLC monitoring), the crude mixture was filtered through a Celite pad (washed with CH₂Cl₂) and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (silica gel; EtOAc–petroleum ether, 5%) to afford bis-alkylated quinone derivative 18 (67%) as a liquid. ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 1.19–1.22 (m, 6 H), 1.37–1.45 (m, 4 H), 1.49–1.56 (m, 2 H), 1.63–1.70 (m, 2 H), 2.06 (q, J = 7.0 Hz, 4 H), 2.59–2.65 (m, 6 H), 4.07–4.12 (m, 4 H), 4.94–5.02 (m, 4 H), 5.71–5.81 (m, 2 H), 6.54 (s, 2 H). ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 14.42, 26.40, 31.75, 32.22, 33.52, 44.24, 60.67, 115.10, 133.89, 138.24, 146.68, 174.78, 187.40. IR (neat): 2931, 2858, 1728, 1464, 1266 cm^–1. HRMS (Q-Tof): m/z [M + H] calcd for C₂₆H₃₇O₆: 445.2590; found: 445.2601.
