Polarographic Behaviour of α-and γ-Substituted Acetoanilide Derivatives in Alcoholic Aqueous Media

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF00810468

A polarographic study on a series of newly synthesized compounds, namely N-(3'-pyridyl)-2,3-dioxobutanamide-2-arylhydrazones (1a-f) in a wide range of pH is reported and discussed.CPE indicated that these compounds are reduced in the hydrazono form.A scheme is proposed and confirmed through isolation and identification of 2,5-dimethyl-3,6-di-1,4-dihydro-pyrazine as an electrolysis product.Keywords.Polarography; Acetoanilides, polarography of.
