Abstract: Anodic oxidation of 2,5-dioxabicyclo[4.4.0]decane 1a, 1-methoxy-2,5-dioxabicyclo[4.4.0]decane 1b and 1-hydroxy-2,5-dioxabicyclo[ 4.4.0]decane 1c in methanol in the presence of tetrabutylammonium fluoroborate as a supporting electrolyte induces the electrooxidative transformation of substrates 1a and 1b into methyl 5-(dimethoxymethyl)pentanoate and of substrate 1c into methyl 5-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)pentanoate.
