Abstract

Electroorganic synthesis of alkanes, alkenes and esters by anodic decarboxylation of potassium salt of palmitic acid, stearic acid, lauric acid and myristic acid, amines by reduction of aromatic nitro compounds, pinacols by reduction of carbonyl compounds, aromatic dimmers by oxidation of aromatic amines, 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives by electrocyclization of semicarbazone and acylthiosemicarbazone, aldol condensation of aldehydes, and acetamidation of aromatic compounds were carried out at platinum plate in undivided electrochemical cell at desired potential using simple solvent and supporting electrolyte. All the reactions were carried out at room temperature by using small amount of electricity without involvement of toxic chemicals.
