Several aldehyde and ketone phenylhydrazones were electrooxidized in MeOH. Electrooxidation in the presence of KI or tetraethylammonium p-toluenesulfonate as the supporting electrolyte afforded the corresponding methoxy(phenylazo)alkanes, whereas electrooxidation in the presence of KI, NaCN, and HOAc afforded the cyano(phenylazo)alkanes.
