Electrochemical oxidation of methyl ketones in methanoi in the presence of alkali metal bromides affords methyl carboxylates. Benzyl alkyl ketones are transformed under similar conditions into methyl 3-phenylalkanoates, while ketones lacking σ-benzyl or σ-methyl group are oxidized into σ-hydroxyketals.
