Abstract
Acetaldehyde is produced when solutions of ethyl sodioacetoacetate in ethanol or aqueous ethanol are electrolysed using a platinum anode and a mercury cathode. Products arising from the condensation of acetaldehyde with ethyl acetoacetate result, and a reinvestigation of these products and of their 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones is reported. No diethyl αα′-diacetylsuccinate can be detected amongst the electrolysis products.Keywords
