Direct Substitution of a Hydroxyl Group by a Carboxyl Group at the Benzylic Position in Benzyl Alcohols by Electrochemical Reduction in the Presence of Carbon Dioxide: Improvement Enabling Electrochemical Direct Carboxylation of Benzyl Alcohols even in the Absence of an Electron-withdrawing Group on the Phenyl Ring

Electrochemical carboxylation of benzyl alcohols even in the absence of an electron-withdrawing group on the phenyl ring was successfully carried out by improving our previous electrolysis conditions. Constant current electrolysis of benzyl alcohols including diphenylmethanol in DMSO containing 0.1...
