A novel Kolbe reaction pathway for a selective one- and two-electron reduction of azo compounds

Abstract

The selective one- and two-electron reduction of azo-pyridine and azo-1,8-naphthyridine with anionic CH3COO by the Kolbe reaction has been established for the first time, and reaction mechanisms are presented.
