Conclusions
-
1.
An electrochemical method was developed for the one-step preparation of 2,5-dihydrothiophene-2-carboxylic acid.
-
2.
The yield of the 2,5-dihydrothiophene-2-carboxylic acid is affected by the nature of the cation of the alkali metal (Li, K, Na), the hydroxide of which is used as the inert electrolyte.
