The article was titled 《Highly selective electroreductive linear dimerization of electron-deficient vinylarenes》.Application of 1530-32-1 The article contains the following contents:
A direct electroreductive dimerization of electron-deficient vinylarenes R1R2C:CR3R4 (R1 = Ph, 4-NCC6H4, pyridin-4-yl, etc., R2 = R3 = R4 = H; R1 = 4-EtO2CC6H4, R2 = Me, Ph, R3 = R4 = H; R1 = 4-MeO2CC6H4, R2 = H, R3 = Me, R4 = H, Me; etc.) for the synthesis of 1,4-diarylbutanes R1R2CH-CR3R4-CR3R4-CHR1R2 as 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. In the experiment, the researchers used Ethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide(cas: 1530-32-1Application of 1530-32-1)
Ethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide(cas: 1530-32-1) is a phase transfer catalyst, used to accelerate the cure of phenolic-based epoxy resins, certain fluoroelastomer resins and thermosetting powder coatings. It is also used as catalysts in the synthesis of certain organic compounds and as a pharmaceutical intermediate.Application of 1530-32-1
