- Department of Chemistry, University of Kashmir, Srinagar 190 006 Manuscript received 18 June 1988, revised 19 October 1988, accepted 13 October 1988 Electrochemical oxidation or phenylacetlic acid to benzylacetamide on carbon anode in nominally wet acetonitrlle has been round to give 68% yield. The effect of potential, pH and temperature on the reaction revealed interesting features which throw light on the proposed mechanism.
