Nevertheless, relatively little has been done to explore their application in electrosynthesis. We have studied the Shono oxidation of arylamines and carbamates using ionic liquids as recyclable solvents and have noted that the viscosity of the medium is a major problem, although with the addition of sufficient co-solvent, good results and excellent recovery and recycling of the ionic liquid can be achieved. http://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/16/7/5963/ Mon, 18 Jul 2011 00:00:00 CEST Molecules 2011-07-18 16 7 Article 5963 5974 1420-3049 Synthetic Organic Electrochemistry in Ionic Liquids: The Viscosity Question 2011-07-18 doi: 10.3390/molecules16075963 Steven Bornemann Scott T. Handy http://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/16/7/5550/ A range of novel 4-amino-6-arylpyrimidines has been prepared under mild conditions by an electrochemical reductive cross-coupling between 4-amino-6-chloro-pyrimidines and functionalized aryl halides. The process, which employs a sacrificial iron anode in conjunction with a nickel(II) catalyst, allows the formation of coupling products in moderate to high yields. http://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/16/7/5550/ Wed, 29 Jun 2011 00:00:00 CEST Molecules 2011-06-29 16 7 Communication 5550 5560 1420-3049 An Electrochemical Synthesis of Functionalized Arylpyrimidines from 4-Amino-6-Chloropyrimidines and Aryl Halides 2011-06-29 doi: 10.3390/molecules16075550 Stéphane Sengmany Erwan Le Gall Eric Léonel
