A new and powerful active anode system that can be operated in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) has been discovered. In HFIP the molybdenum anode forms a compact, conductive, and electroactive layer of higher-valent molybdenum species. This system can replace powerful but stoichiometrically required Mo reagents for the dehydrogenative coupling of aryls. This electrolytic reaction is more sustainable and allows the conversion of a broad scope of activated arenes.
一种新型、强大的活性阳极系统已经被发现,该系统可以在 1,1,1,3,3,3-六氟-2-丙醇(HFIP)中运行。在 HFIP 中,钼阳极形成了一种紧凑、导电且具有更高价态钼物种的电活性层。该系统可以替代强但化学计量需要的 Mo 试剂,用于芳基的脱氢偶联反应。这种电解反应更加可持续,并允许广泛范围的活化芳环的转化。
