Anodic Preparation
of 5
2,4-Dimethylphenol (1,
24.4 g, 0.2 mol) was mixed with 0.1 M Ba(OH)2˙8H2O
in MeOH (100 mL) and transferred into a nondivided standard electrolysis
cell equipped with two platinum sheets as anode and cathode, respectively.
At 25 ˚C a galvanostatic electrolysis with a current
density of 12.5 mA/cm² was performed.
During the electrolysis vigorous stirring is necessary and the formation
of 5 as a light brown precipitate can be
observed. After application of 33200 C (1.7 F/1) the precipitate was filtered off and
washed with MeOH (40 mL) to yield analytically pure 5 (12.7
g, 26.34 mmol, 52%) as colorless solid; mp 146-148 ˚C. ¹H
