Abstract

The electrocarboxylation of a large variety of chlorobenzenic compounds is achieved in N,N-dimethylformamide by constant current electrolysis between a stainless steel cathode and a sacrificial magnesium anode in a diaphragmless cell. Substituted benzoic acids are obtained in high yield in simle conditions thus avoiding the usual preparation of organometallic intermediates.
