Convergent Paired Electrochemical Synthesis of Azoxy and Azo Compounds: An Insight into the Reaction Mechanism
|
|
Abstract
|
A convergent paired electrochemical method was developed for the synthesis of azoxy and azo compounds starting from the corresponding nitroarenes. We propose a unique mechanism for electrosynthesis of azoxy and azo compounds. We find that both anodic and cathodic reactions are responsible for the synthesis of these compounds. The synthesis of azoxy and azo derivatives have been successfully performed in an undivided cell, using carbon rod electrodes, by constant current electrolysis at room temperature.
