Electrochemical reduction of ethers has been studied both in aprotic and in protic solvents. The cleavage of the carbon-oxygen bond mainly occurs for benzylic and allylic ethers but it can lx observed a partial reduction of the electrophore leading to a saturated ether. Vinylic and allenic ethers ar
