The aim is to understand how Pb impurities affect the electrochemical reductive amination of acetone using Ag electrodes.
Involves electrochemical experiments using Ag electrodes with varying Pb concentrations.
Investigates the role of Pb impurities in the solution during the reaction.
Examines the underlying mechanistic pathways of hydrogen transfer.
Pb at 1 ppm significantly enhances the amination reaction efficiency.
Characterization of Pb species suggests a promoting effect on electron transfer processes.
Findings indicate potential for optimizing electrochemical reactions through impurity modulation.
Abstract
Electrochemical reductive amination of acetone using Ag electrodes is strongly enhanced by 1 ppm Pb in the solution but the underlying mechanisms and the nature of the Pb species remain...
