Abstract

New electrolysis methods for electro-organic syntheses were reviewed from the viewpoint of reduetion of difficulties in work-up and material preparation processes. The two phase electrolysis method has been applied to chlorination and cyanation of some aromatic compounds, using a phase transfer catalyst such as a quaternary ammonium salt. Addition of some Lewis acids to the system caused a favorable effect on yield. An ion exchange membrane was utilized as a supporting electrolyte using a conventional cell of two compartment equipped with a fine platinum mesh electrode pressed on the ion exchange membrane. An SPE electrolysis method was applied to electro-organic syntheses. The feasibility of the method was examined in some systems including mediatory systems fixed in an SPE material, usually Nafion. The fundamental properties of three methods were also reviewed.
