Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Electrocatalytic hydrogenation of quinoline, quinoline N-oxide, 8-oxyquinoline, and 5,7-dibromo-8-oxyquinoline is studied in an aqueous alkali catholyte solution with the additive of organic solvents on skeleton catalysts (Ni, Co, Cu, Fe) used for cathode activation. It is shown that the main product of hydrogenation of quinoline and quinoline N-oxide is 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline, whereas that of hydrogenation of 8-oxyquinoline, and its dibromo derivative, is 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-8-oxyquinoline. A conclusion is made on the basis of chromatographic analysis as to the consecutive-parallel processes of deoxidation and hydrogenation of the N-heterocycle under electrocatalytic reduction of quinoline N-oxide.
