Key Points

To evaluate the electrocatalytic oxidation of 2-thiophenemethanol to 2-thiophenemethanal using a modified nanocarbon sphere electrode in an aqueous acidic environment.
Fabricated an electrode comprising manganese dioxide-phosphate dispersed nanocarbon spheres supported on carbon fiber paper (MnO2–Pi-NCS/CFP).
Conducted electrochemical oxidation of 2-thiophenemethanol in aqueous acidic media utilizing TEMPO as a mediator relative to unmodified control electrodes.
The MnO2–Pi-NCS/CFP electrode exhibited significantly greater electrocatalytic activity toward oxidizing 2-thiophenemethanol into 2-thiophenemethanal compared with unmodified electrodes.
Effective mediated transformation occurred cleanly within aqueous acidic conditions using the TEMPO catalytic system.
