An electrochem. method for the deoxygenation of N-heteroaromatic N-oxide, e.g., I to give the corresponding N-heteroaromatics, e.g., II has been developed. Several classes of N-heterocycles such as pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, and phenanthridine are tolerated. The electrochem. reactions proceed efficiently in aqueous solution without the need for transition-metal catalysts and waste-generating reducing reagents. In the experiment, the researchers used 2-(2-Hydroxyethyl)pyridine(cas: 103-74-2Computed Properties of C7H9NO)
2-(2-Hydroxyethyl)pyridine(cas: 103-74-2) belongs to pyridine. Pyridines form stable salts with strong acids. Pyridine itself is often used to neutralize acid formed in a reaction and as a basic solvent. Computed Properties of C7H9NO
