Abstract
The electrochemical behavior of a series of halogen-containing cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ones at the glassy-carbon electrode in DMF was studied. The reductive dehalogenation of 2-bromo-5-dibromomethyl-4-dichloromethyl-4-methylcyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-one first results in the elimination of the carbonylallylic bromine atoms, then the carbonylic bromine atom is elimi-nated, and finally, the neopentylic chlorine atoms are eliminated.
