Abstract
The electrolysis of potassium acetate has been carried out in methanol solutions of 3,3-dimethyl-1-butene. Twelve compounds were identified as reaction products. Among these were a number which resulted from molecular rearrangements. The implications of these regarding the mechanism of the reaction are discussed. The bulk of the products arise from attack of a Me free radical on the terminal olefin carbon and the subsequent reactions of the resultant free radical.
