Anodic oxidation of a methanolic solution of pseudocumene (1) in a single-cell apparatus at constant current using sodium methoxide as the supporting electrolyte afforded trans-3,6-dimethoxy-1,3,6-trimethylcyclohexa-1,4-diene (5).This is the first time th
Anodic Oxidation of Methylbenzenes. Synthetic Routes to Certain Cyclohexa-1,4-dienes

The anodic methoxylation of a series of methylbenzenes (mesitylene, pseudocumene, hemimellitene, pentamethylbenzene, and hexamethylbenzene) afforded chain methoxylated products as well as nuclear-addition products.For nuclear-addition products both cis/trans isomers are possible.In the cyclohexa-1,4-dienes obtained from these substrates the cis/trans ratio found is different.A probable mechanism is provided.
