Abstract
At a TEMPO-modified graphite felt electrode (TMGFE) rac-1-phenylethanol 2 i s not enantioselectively oxidised in the presence of(-)-sparteine 1, but in stead 1 is dehydrogenated to its iminium salt; 2 is oxidised in solution by the oxoammonium salt 6 in the absence of 1, but not on the TMGFE in the ra nge 0-1.0 V vs, Ag/AgNO3.
