Synthesis of Alkenes from Vicinal trans-1,2-Dibromide compounds by electrochemical methods

Abstract

In this work, alkene synthesis was carried out by electrochemical reduction of compounds having a bicyclic ring system. The required starting compounds were prepared the endoperoxide and trans-7,8-dibromo-cis-2,5-dihydroxybicyclo [4.2.0] octa-3-ene using synthetic methods. Electrochemical reduction method was applied to these compounds and obtained the cis-2,5-diacetoxy-bicyclo [4.2.0] octa-3,7-diene and bicyclo [4.2.0] octa-3,7-diene. The structures of all compounds obtained were determined using spectroscopic techniques (FT-IR, ¹H-¹³C-NMR).

Öz

Bu çalışmada, bisiklik halka sistemine sahip bileşiklerden elektrokimyasal indirgenme ile alken sentezi yapıldı. Gerekli başlangıç bileşikleri, endoperoksit ve trans-7,8-dibromo-cis-2,5-dihidroksibisiklo [4.2.0] okta-3-en sentetik yöntemler kullanılarak hazırlandı. Bu bileşiklere elektrokimyasal indirgenme yöntemi uygulanarak cis-2,5-diasetoksi-bisiklo [4.2.0] okta-3,7-dien ve bisiklo [4.2.0] okta-3,7-dien elde edildi. Elde edilen tüm bileşiklerin yapıları spektroskopik teknikler (FT-IR, ¹H- ¹³C-NMR) kullanılarak belirlendi.
