In acetonitrile containing tetraethyhunmonium perchlorate, cyclic voltammograms for the reduction of 2,4,6-trimethylbenxoyl chloride at glassy carbon and hanging mercury drop electrodes exhibit five and four cathodic waves, respectively. At potentials corresponding to the first wave, cleavage of the
Recently, we have established that the electrochemical reduction of acyl halides in acetonitrile containing tetraalkylammonium salts can lead to the formation of aldehydes. Heptanoyl chloride is reduced to heptaldehyde at both carbon and mercury cathodes;' phenylacetaldehyde and hydroch~namaldehyde
