Description |
Monofluoro dimethyl glutarate has been successfully
synthesized for the first time by electrochemical
fluorination. It is done in an undivided polypropylene cell
with platinum electrodes. Initially at three different current
densities, dimethyl glutarate is subjected to electrofluorination.
Maximum yield of monofluoro product is obtained at
15 mA cm−2. Selecting this current density, electrosynthesis
is done at three different charges. Maximum yield of 71.5%
of the monofluoro product is obtained with a conversion
efficiency of 95.2% when the charge of 6 F/mol is passed.
The synthesized product is characterized using Fourier
transform infrared (FTIR), gas chromatography/mass spectrometry
(GC/MS), and nuclear magnetic resonance
(NMR). The product purity and composition are ascertained
using GC/MS. The attachment of fluorine to methylene
group is indicated using FTIR data. From NMR studies, the
environment of fluorine in the neighborhood of carbon and
hydrogen has been established. Results are discussed in the
paper.
