Title Electrochemical oxidation of catechol in the presence of an aromatic amine in aqueous media
Type JournalPaper
Keywords Cyclic voltammetry, Electrochemical synthesis, Catechol, Aromatic amine
Abstract The electrochemical oxidation of catechol has been studied in the presence ofp-nitroaniline as a nucleophile in aqueous media at the surface of glassy carbon electrode, using cyclic voltammetry. The products of electrosynthesis have been purified and characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C NMR, and distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT), and the mechanism of anodic oxidation was deduced from voltammetric and spectroscopic data.
