The reaction of 4-tert-butyl-1,2-benzoquinone (BQ) with 4-amino-N,N-diethylaniline (ADA) produces a stable blue adduct with lambda(max) 625 nm (epsilon 11,120 M-1 cm(-1)). This makes the reaction a sensitive analytical tool, suitable for the detection and spectrophotometric determination of this quinone even in the presence of biological compounds. The adduct was identified as 3-tert-butyl-4-(4'-diethylamino)-phenylimino-6-hydroxycyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-one.

Abstract
The reaction of 4-tert-butyl-1,2-benzoquinone (BQ) with 4-amino-N,N-diethylaniline (ADA) produces a stable blue adduct with lambda(max) 625 nm (epsilon 11,120 M-1 cm(-1)). This makes the reaction a sensitive analytical tool, suitable for the detection and spectrophotometric determination of this quinone even in the presence of biological compounds. The adduct was identified as 3-tert-butyl-4-(4'-diethylamino)-phenylimino-6-hydroxycyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-one.
