Abstract
Electrochemical carboxylation of alkyl-substituted vinyl bromides (1a- 1g) in the presence of 20 mol% of NiBr2.bpy under an atmospheric press ure of carbon dioxide with a platinum cathode and a magnesium anode ga ve the corresponding alpha,beta-unsaturated carboxylic acids (2a-2g) i n yields of 53-82%.
