Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00009a026

Electroreduction of diimines, prepared from 1,2-diamines and aromatic aldehydes, in acidic media gave intramolecularly coupled products, 2,3-diarylpiperazines, stereoselectively.Chiral tri- and tetrasubstituted piperazines were synthesized effectively fro
