Alkynylation of Aldehydes Initiated by Cathodic Reduction
Abstract Alkynylation of aldehydes initiated by cathodic reduction was performed. The cathodic alkynylation required only a semi‐catalytic amount of electricity to consume the starting material completely. Cyclic voltammetry and some control experiments suggest that the electron‐generated base deriv...

| Summary: | Abstract Alkynylation of aldehydes initiated by cathodic reduction was performed. The cathodic alkynylation required only a semi‐catalytic amount of electricity to consume the starting material completely. Cyclic voltammetry and some control experiments suggest that the electron‐generated base derived from the cathodic reduction of benzaldehyde promotes alkynylation. |
