Electrochemical/chemical oxidation of bisphenol A in a four-electron/two-proton process in aprotic organic solvents

- Bisphenol A undergoes a chemically irreversible voltammetric oxidation process.
- Chemical oxidation was performed to overcome adsorption effects that cause electrode fouling.
- A new product was isolated from chemical oxidation with 4 mol equiv. of the one-electron oxidant, NO+.
- The oxidative mechanism was proposed to be a four-electron/two-proton process.
