Electrochemistry, anodic oxidation amides

In many of the direct amide oxidations illustrated above, the reactions were used to functionalize amino acid derivatives. Because of the reactions effectiveness in this area, anodic electrochemistry has proven to be an outstanding tool for building constrained peptidomimetics [78-81]. In this work, a series of constrained peptide analogs were designed by replacing spatially close hydrogens in a proposed... 

The first comprehensive set of data on the oxidation reactions of nonaqueous electrolyte solutions, as well as their positive anodic limit for use in electrochemistry, was prepared by Mann [13]. Table 5 summarizes some useful selected data from his review. This data is representative for several families of organic solvents, including ethers, organic carbonates, amides, acids, and alcohols, in terms of anodic potential limits.
