Anodic oxidation of 4-hydroxycinnamic acids, 4-hydroxycinnamides and related phenols was carried out at a controlled potential, using an undivided cell, to afford the corresponding asatone-, isoasatone-, pinoresinol- or podophyllotoxin-type compounds.Furthermore, the corresponding dihydroxy compounds were also electrolyzed at a controlled potential to give different dienones depending on the side chains.Keywords - neolignan; electrochemical oxidation; Diels-Alder reaction; biomimetic synthesis
