Abstract
In dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone the Ni-bipyridyl system catalyses the electrochemical reduction of functionalised or non-functionalised aliphatic halides. High yields of dimeric products are obtained besides primary mono- or di-bromides. Analysis of the reaction products shows the formation of dialkylnickel which can be isolated by coulometry. This species acts as a reducing agent for aliphatic halides.
