Quinone

Description

Quinone is a class of oxidized organic compounds with a fully conjugated cyclic dione structure derived from aromatic compounds. Ubiquinone or coenzmye Q is the naturally occurring quinone in the mitochondrial ETS, while in the photosynthetic system plastoquinones are common. The quinone is reduced either to an unstable semiquinone by one hydrogen atom or to a quinol by two electrons and two protons.

Nomenclature of quinones with isoprenoid side-chains. World Wide Web version Prepared by G. P. Moss - https://iupac.qmul.ac.uk/misc/quinone.html
"The biologically active quinones with isoprenoid or phytyl sidechains include members of the vitamins K and E and coenzyme Q families. The various trivial names given these substances as they were discovered and investigated do not reflect the close chemical relationships among them. Particularly confusing has been the use of numerical subscripts as series numbers (e.g. vitamin K-2), as indicators of the number of isoprene units (e.g. coenzyme Q2), and to show that a side-chain in a vitamin E is the same as in a vitamin K (e.g. E-2 and K-2)."
