In order to better understand the specific substituent effects on the electrochemical oxidation process of β-O-4 bond,a series of methox-yphenyl type β-O-4 dimer model compounds with different localized methoxyl groups,including 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenylethanone,2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenylethanol,2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone,2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol,2-(2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanone,2-(2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol have been selected and their electrochemical properties have been studied experimentally by cyclic voltammetry,and FT-IR spectroelectrochemistry.Combining with electrolysis products distribution analysis and density functional theory calculations,oxidation mechanisms of all six model dimers have been explored.In particular,a total effect from substituents of both para-methoxy(on the aryl ring closing to Ca)and Cα-OH on the oxidation mechanisms has been clearly observed,showing a significant selectivity on the Cα-Cβ bond cleavage induced by electrochemical oxidations.
