Ruthenium-catalysis enabled the C-5 selective C-H oxygenation of naphthoquinones, and also sets the stage for the site-selective introduction of a hydroxyl group into anthraquinones. A-ring modified naphthoquinoidal compounds represent an important class of bioactive quinones for which the present study encompasses the first C-H oxygenation strategy by weak O-coordination. © 2018 The Royal Society of Chemistry.
