TLDR
The cathodic reduction of α,α-dibromodibenzoylmethane (α-bromo-1,3-diphenyl-1-3-propanodione) on Hg and Pt cathodes leads to the same compound but the charge consumption on Pt is double that of Hg as discussed by the authors.

A new proposed mechanism for the cathodic reduction of a carbon-chlorine bond in 2-acetylphenyltrichloroacetate

Belen Batanero, +1 more

TL;DR: The cathodic reduction of 2-acetylphenyltrichloroacetate at a controlled potential of −05 V (vs SCE) yields 3,3-dichloroc-4-hydroxy 4-methyl-3,4-dihydrocoumarin The charge consumption is 1e−/substrate molecule, which is in agreement with a nonconventional R-X→R−+X mechanism.

Electroreduction of halogenated fumaric esters: a combined electrochemical and computational investigation

Marília O. F. Goulart, +6 more
- 01 Jun 2004 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a cyclic voltammetry and electrolysis analysis of halogenated derivatives has been carried out on mercury and glassy carbon electrodes, and the results show that the C-X cleavage is the reaction of choice.
