A direct electroreductive dimerization of electron-deficient vinylarenes for the synthesis of 1,4-diarylbutane has been developed using a simple undivided cell with inexpensive carbon electrodes at room temperature. The control and deuterium-labeling experiments of electroreductive dimerization suggest that the hydrogen source comes from the solvent CH3CN. This protocol provides a mild and efficient route for the construction of C–C bond in moderate to good yields with high regioselectivity and broad substrate scope.
Electroreductive coupling of vinylpyridines and vinylquinolines: Radical anion-substrate cycloaddition?
Janssen, Robert G.
, p. 539 - 540 (2007/10/03)
Cathodic reduction of 2- and 4-vinylpyridine and of 2-vinylquinoline gives trans-1,12-di(heteroaryl)cyclobutanes as major products; they arise via radical anion-substrate cycloaddition.
