โฆ Synopsis
AhstrrctXatalytic
electro-oxidation of water is linked with the oxidation of toluene. The catalyst, Ru(acac), acts as a reversible mediator. Controlled potential electrolysis of water with Ru(acac), at 1.35-1.5V in the presence of toluene, yields bitolyl and benzyltoluene in small amounts. Toluene coupling takes place at least 1 V below the overpotential for its direct electro-oxidation and is best explained as caused by electrogenerated radicals.
