General description

Electrochemical reduction of 1-iododecane at mercury cathodes in DMF containing tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate or tetramethyl ammonium perchlorate (supporting electrolyte) has been investigated.

Application

1-Iododecane has been used in the preparation of 9-nonadecanone via palladium-catalyzed carbonylative cross-coupling reaction with 9-octyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.l]nonane.

In order to develop a new long alkane chain pterin that leaves the pterin core largely unperturbed, we synthesized and photochemically characterized decyl pterin-6-carboxyl ester (CapC) that preserves the pterin amide group. CapC contains a decyl-chain at the carboxylic acid
