Mechanism of electroreduction of allyl alcohol at platinized platinum electrode in acidic aqueous solution.

The electroreduction of allyl alcohol to form propene at the platinized platinum electrode in acidic aqueous solution has been studied using CV plots, IR, ESR, and MS spectra, and a semiempricial MO method (MOPAC7/AM1, PM3). From the determinations of charge-transfer coefficients, reaction orders and apparent activation energy for the given reaction, the detection of the intermediates such as C(3)H(5)(+), C(3)H(5)(*), and C(3)H(5)(-) species, and PM3 calculations of charge distribution and frontier orbital energies of the reaction species C(3)H(5)OH and C(3)H(5)(+), the authors suggest that in acidic aqueous solution the production of propene via reductive splitting of the C-OH bond situated in the allyl position of allyl alcohol obeys a carbonium ion-carbanion mechanism.[1]
