Pyridine to Piperidine (electrochemical)

[Xicori]

High!

has anybee information about the electrochemical reduction of pyridine to piperidine?

any writeups?

The hardest thing to explain is the obvious

I made electrosynthesis piperidine of pyridine.
This expedient is tested many times and works very good!

The lead plate are made of clean lead.
The diaphragm is made of glass tissue and is glued by a liquid silica glass. It is little bit more, than lead plate. Then the diaphragm is acidized and is washed by water. At pouring in not ¸ of water, the water should drip very much slowly, 1-5 drips one minute
The plates wash by hydrogen nitrate.
On 1 liter of electrolyte for lead accumulators takes 100 mls of pyridine, the plates alight and the current is included. A current intensity 10-15 amperes of \100 centimeters2, (+) and (-) change places, and then in 5 minutes again vary. It is necessary for an enhancement of activity of plates. In diaphragm the plate is (+). After a gear transmission 800 amperes*clocks on each 100 mls of pyridine, mass evolves into a flask and is neutralized NaOH up to pH~11-12 of response. Then the equal water volume is added and is distilled off 500-700 mls on taken 100 mls of pyridine. Then distillate title concentrated HCL strictly up to pH=9-10 (decolourization of phenolphthalein), and distil off unreacted pyridine. A solution volatilize up to volume 200 mls on each 1 of the mol spent acid, and at once will utillize in synthesis PCP (add 1 mol KCN and 0,9 mol of cyclohexanone on 1 mol of spent acid). It is possible to bleed and clean chloride of piperidine, vapouring a solution.

Yield of piperidine 50 %, from 1 liter of pyridine - > 0,6 liters of piperidine (6 mol of chloride).

Features:
1. The lead should be very clean.
2. All reagents do not owe ñîäåðæàòüäàæå a tramp iron or other metals.
3. The reactionary vessel should be chilled - to put in a basin with cool water.

You can use electrical power unit for the accumulator or device for welding for this synthesis - it is depends on quantity of materials, which one you will use.

thanks, fallen angel, that pushes me forward a lot!

please can you describe the diaphragm a bit more, i didn´t get that completely... thank you!

...xicori is completely new on electrosynthesis

Do you mean fiberglass by glass tissue?

[fallen_Angel]

I am speak English not very good .

Certainly, this is glass-fibre.

Diaphragm by the size 2 cms * 15 cms * 30 cms. Is made of several beds of glass-fibre and is glued by a liquid silica glass. It is good works in acids and organic solvents, but is labile in alkali. In it the plate seats (+).
