This letter describes a convenient synthesis of the six isomeric tri- and tetramethylbenzaldehydes, which are not readily available from major chemical suppliers. Formylation of readily available phenols via electrophilic aromatic substitution provides compounds containing the correct aromatic substitution pattern. ?Suzuki cross-coupling of the corresponding trifluoromethanesulfonates with methylboronic acid then provides the benzaldehydes as single isomers.

Autoxidation of 4,6,8-trimethylazulene at 120 deg C in N,N-dimethylformamide yielded twelve separable products (including four known compounds), which were assigned to be azulenoquinone, inden-1-one, and azulenyl-1-indanone derivatives.A comparison of the present results with those of guaiazulene was made to obtain a mechanistic aspect of the oxidation reaction.
