Patent number: 11414768Abstract: A method for preparing a compound with a spiro[5.5] molecular skeleton by electrooxidation is provided, which relates to the field of organic synthesis technology. Specifically, the method includes o-alkynyl benzoyl biphenyl reacts with sodium fluoromethylsulfite in an electrolyte and a solvent under a current condition to obtain the compound with the spiro[5.5] molecular skeleton. The method uses cheap CF3 (trifluoromethyl) free radical and electrooxidation to realize the de-aromatization of biphenyl without catalyst. The reaction can occur only under the action of current, which is energy-saving and economical. The free radical used in the reaction is cheap, easy to obtain and low cost. The reaction device is simple and easy to operate, and the yield of the reaction is as high as 60%.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2022Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: ZHEJIANG NORMAL UNIVERSITYInventor: Yan Zhang

Patent number: 5705049Abstract: An integrated process for oxidizing aromatic and alkyl aromatic compounds to form carbonyl containing reaction products comprising the reaction of quadravalent cerium with a reactant stream containing an aromatic or alkyl aromatic compound and using a high degree of mixing, followed by the electrolytic regeneration of the reduced cerium ion in a cell under near turbulent or turbulent flow conditions at high solution velocities relative to the anode. The preferred cell structure for accomplishing the electrolysis utilizes an turbulence promoting anode arrangement which allows for the anolyte to flow past the anode under the conditions mentioned, and a reduced area cathode whereby the anode and cathode compartments need not be separated by an ion exchange membrane.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 1996Date of Patent: January 6, 1998Assignee: Hydro-QuebecInventor: Stephen Harrison
