Abstract:. The electrochemical oxidation of titanium metal in the presence of an essentially nonaqueous electrolyte phase yields titanium(II1) species in solution. It has been shown that this method of generating TiX3 (X = balancing anion) forms the basis of a convenient way of reducing it1 sit// certain organic functional groups (sulfoxide, oxime, haloketone, vinyl dicarboxylic acid, and nitro aromatics). The stoichiometry of the reaction has been established in each case, and corresponds to the oxidation of TiX3 and … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
