Electroreductive coupling of aromatic acyl bromides to 1,2-diketones

, p. 755 - 756 (2007/10/03)
The direct electroreduction of aromatic acyl bromides gave aromatic 1,2-diketones. The best result was obtained using a Pb cathode in acetonitrile containing Bu4NClO4 as a supporting electrolyte. Aromatic acyl bromides substituted by an electron-donating group afforded 1,2-diketones in moderate-to-good yields, whereas acylated endiols were formed exclusively from aromatic acyl bromides substituted by an electron-withdrawing group.
