Abstract
The possibility of electrochemical synthesis of 2,3-dimethylbutanediol-2,3 by hydrodimerization of acetone in an electrolyzer with external cooling an d electrolyte circulation provided by a gas-lift system. The use of an elec trolyte with an LV-4584 brightener additive used in zinc plating ensured a stable current efficiency by the target product.
