A method to functionalize two vicinal C-H bonds of saturated azaheterocycles is described. The procedure involves subjecting the substrate to a mixture of hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, and acetic anhydride in an undivided electrochemical cell at a constant current, resulting in stereoselective conversion to the corresponding α-acetoxy-β-chloro derivative. The α-position can be readily substituted with a range of other groups, including alkyl, aryl, allyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, or azido functionalit ...[more]
