Anodic oxidation of enaminones (1a-1e), prepared from p-substituted acetophenones and N,N-dimethylformamide dimethylacetal were studied under different solution conditions using cyclic voltammetry, coulometry at controlled potential and preparative electrolysis. Two major products from preparative anodic oxidation of 3-(N,N-dimethylamino)-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2-propen-1-one, 1a, were isolated,ie the dimeric product 2 and 2,5-bis-(p-nitrophenyl)furane, 3, in 50 and 20% yield, respectively.
