Abstract
The electrochemical reduction of N-haloamides (ZCONRX) in acetonitrile involves two consecutive one-electron transfers and generates the amide anion. Attempts to trap the intermediate amidyl radical resulting from the first electron transfer were unsuccessful. In the case of the N-halo-N-hydroamides (R= H), the amide anion formed at the electrode abstracts a proton from an incoming N-halo-N-hydroamide molecule to give the parent amide and ...
