Cathode stream: 4 (0.1 M), PhI (2 equiv) NiBr2 dme/dtbbpy (30 mol %), Bu4NPF6 (0.2 M); anode stream: NEt3 (6 equiv), Bu4NPF6 (0.2 M).
j = current density, mA per cubic centimeter of RVC carbon foam (100 ppi).
Internal wet volume of anode or cathode flow cell is 0.5 mL.
Yield determined by calibrated HPLC assay.
