New Insights into the Phenacyl Bromide Electroreduction: Unambiguously Characterized 5,5́-bis(3,5-diaryl-2(5H)-furanone). Anodic Oxidation of 2,4-diphenylfuran

Abstract New attempts and insights are reported on the electrochemical potentiostatic reduction of phenacyl bromides in DMF. Now we present the evidences on the original mechanism proposal, the definitive characterization of the obtained products and additional results of complementary electrochemical anodic reactions.
