Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00168a017

Electrochemical oxidation of a series of diarylmethyl anions was examined.Twelve varingly substituted groups including methyl, dimethyl, ring, and a CH2N(CH3)2 group were studied as the lithium salts in dimethoxyethane/tetramethylethylenediamine by use of
