entry variation from “standard conditions” yield (%)
1 none >99
2 Ni(−) instead of Pt(−) 92
3 divided cell, constant current of 8 mA 81
4 ElectraSyn 2.0 as power source, 0.3 mmol 1k 82
5 AA batteries (×2) as power source 89
6 using TBAPF6 instead of LiClO4 95
7 no LiClO4, Ecell = 3.4 Vb >99
8 1 mmol scale 69c
a

Reaction conditions: see Table 1, entry 6.

b

A higher cell voltage is applied to compensate for the increased solution resistance between cathode and anode.

c

Isolated yield; reaction was carried out at a higher substrate concentration (see SI).
