Abstract
A one-pot electrochemical method for the synthesis of methyl monooxoalkanoates with the carbonyl group in position 4, methyl dioxoalkanoates with the oxo groups in positions 4,7-, 6,9-, 7,10-, and 12,15, and methyl 4-oxoalkanedioates was developed. This method is based on amperostatic electrolysis in an undivided cell of the salts of esters of nitroalkaniic acids and their adducts with CH2=CHX (X = Ac, CO2Me).
