Anodic oxidation of styrene (1) in methanol and the effect of the anion of the supporting electrolyte and of the anode material on this process have been studied.The most efficient conversion of 1 into (1,2-dimethoxyethyl)benzene (2) occurs when the electrolysis is carried out with a platinum anode and with potassium fluoride or tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate as the supporting electrolyte.Cleavage of the C-C ? bond in 2 to give benzaldehyde dimethylacetal (3) is the most efficient at a graphite anode in the presence of sodium tosylate. - Key words: styrene, anodic oxidation, electrochemical cleavage of carbon-carbon ? and ? bonds; (1,2-dimethoxyethyl)benzene; benzaldehyde dimethylacetal; (1,1,2-trimethoxyethyl)- and (1,2,2-trimethoxyethyl)benzenes.

Anodic oxidation of a series of substituted styrenes was investigated in methanol with a platinum and a graphite electrode.Use of the platinum anode gave mainly dimethoxylated monomers accompanied wiht one or more of three types of dimethoxylated dimers (αα-, αβ-, and ββ-dimers) depending on the substituents.Use of the graphite anode, however, afforded the ββ-dimers as the main product together with dimethoxylated monomers.
