Abstract

The electroreductive dehalogenation of several mono-and polychlorinated aromatic ethers that serve as models of dioxins has been studied. The dechlorination was achieved by a simple constant-current electrolysis using a lead cathode in dimethylformamide. It was shown that 2, 4, 6-trichloroanisole undergoes successive dechlorination and the chlorine in the 2-position is selectively eliminated. Competitive reactions and cyclic voltammetric ...
