Abstract
A metal-free electrochemical protocol for desulfurization of aryl thioacetals into alkanes under ambient conditions is reported. The method is fully selective for C(sp3)─S bond cleavage, serving as an electrochemical alternative to Mozingo reduction via intermediate formation of thioethers. With a switch of solvent, the transformation enables the formation of deuterated products.
期刊介绍:
ChemElectroChem is aimed to become a top-ranking electrochemistry journal for primary research papers and critical secondary information from authors across the world. The journal covers the entire scope of pure and applied electrochemistry, the latter encompassing (among others) energy applications, electrochemistry at interfaces (including surfaces), photoelectrochemistry and bioelectrochemistry.
