Abstract
Abstract Dicarboxylic acids, as well as their monoesters, have been found to be able to take part in the Brown—Walker synthesis yielding dimeric products and higher oligomers. Adsorption of monoesters and dicarboxylic acids on the surface of a platinum electrode in the potential range 0–3 V has been studied by the method of complex potentiodynamic pulses. Direct comparison of polarization and adsorption measurements of platinum electrodes made it possible to draw clear conclusions on the mechanism of electrodic processes under the Brown—Walker electrosynthesis. The technological scheme of industrial electrosynthesis of sebacic and suberic acids is considered.
