Electrochemical syntheses. Part VII. Isomer distribution in the partial oxidation of n-alkanes

Abstract

The electrochemical oxidation of alkanes in weak acidic solution (CH2Cl2–CF3·CO2H) was investigated. The non-statistical isomer distribution of n-decane oxidation products seems to parallel slight differences in the reactivity of the CH2 groups. A mechanism involving free carbocations is suggested.
