Anodic Oxidation of Some Propenylphenols : Synthesis of Physiologically active Neolignans

抄録

Some propenylphenols have been subjected to anodic oxidation to afford a number of oxidation products including arylpropanoid-, asatone-, austrobailignan-, carpanone- and licarin-type neolignans. The formation process of these compounds involves both radical and cationic reactions controlled by the applied potentials, solvent media and substituents on the aromatic rings.
