Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for the electrolytic oxidative alkoxylating cleavage of 1,2-diarylethane derivatives by electrolytically oxidizing the respective 1,2-diarylethane derivative in a solvent containing the alcohol required for alkoxylation, electrolytic oxidation being performed on a diamond electrode. The inventive method makes it possible to especially produce diaryl derivatives when a 1,2-diarylethane derivative in which the two aryl radicals are directly bonded to each other is used as a substrate.
