An efficient and selective electrosynthesis of phenols and anilines from arylboronic acids in aqueous ammonia is achieved in an undivided cell. By simply changing the concentration of aqueous ammonia and the anode potential, good yields of phenols and anilines can be obtained chemoselectively with high reaction rates. We propose that anodic oxidation could have played an important role in these transformations.
在未分隔的电池中，实现了从芳基硼酸在氨水中高效和选择性地合成酚类和苯胺类化合物。通过简单地改变氨水溶液的浓度和阳极电势，可以以高反应速率化学选择性地获得良好产率的酚类和苯胺类化合物。我们提出阳极氧化可能在这些转化中发挥了重要作用。
