We reported a metal-free electrochemical oxidative C-O homocoupling of 2-naphthols, followed by subsequent alkoxylation under mild conditions. This strategy offered an eco-friendly and cost-effective electrochemical approach using undivided cells. Additionally, the reaction exhibited broad tolerance to various substituted 2-naphthols and diverse alcohols, affording the corresponding naphthalenones in moderate to good yields.
我们报道了一种无金属的2-萘酚电化学氧化C-O均偶联反应，随后在温和条件下进行烷氧基化反应。该策略提供了一种使用无隔膜电池的环保且经济高效的电化学方法。此外，该反应对各种取代的2-萘酚和不同的醇类表现出广泛的耐受性，以中等至良好的产率得到相应的萘醌。
