- FIG. 2 illustrates the anode 14 in cell 10 out of contact with the reactant material 24 and the cell contains no diaphragm 20.
- the inlet and outlet ports 26 and 28 allow electrolyte to be charged into and removed from the cell and ports 36 and 38 allow gases evolved in the process, if any, to exit from the cell.
- These figures illustrate the utilization of the vertical cathode where a reduction type of reaction may take place.
- the cells may be readily modified so that the anode 14 may be in contact with the reactant material 24 to cause oxidation or other analogous reaction.

- Typical cathodic materials include lead, amalgamated lead, cadmium, tin, aluminum, nickel, alloys of nickel, such as Munetal (an alloy containing 77.2 percent nickel, 4.8 percent copper, 1.5 percent chromium, and 14.9 percent iron), Monel, copper, silver, bismuth, and alloys thereof.
- lead-tin, lead-bismuth, and leadbismuth alloys may be employed.
- Various shapes of cathodes may be employed.
- the cathode may be a solid plate illustrated, or may be cylindrical or of other shape.
- Mats of metallic wool and porous metallic sheaths may also be employed, if desired.
- Suitable anode materials include lead, platinum, lead peroxide, graphite, and other materials of construction capable of conducting current and resisting corrosion under the conditions of electrolysis employed.
- the reactant wets a large proportion of the anode or cathode, depending upon the predominant reaction desired, i.e., oxidation or reduction by covering the electrode surface thinly. It does this even though only a small proportion of the electrode surface is below the surface of or in a body of reactant material. One may better visualize this action by comparing it to wicking or capillary action. However, in this instance the reactant material covers or coats the surface of the electrode from a pool of material and the wetting occurs as the electrical current is passed through the electrolyte and appears to be promoted rather than adversely affected by the passage of the current.
- the electrolyte may be an aqueous solution or an organic or inorganic liquid, in which the reactant material utilized is substantially non-soluble.
- suitable aqueous solutions which may be employed as the electrolyte include solutions of hydrochloric acid, sodium chloride, lithium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium sulfate, potassium sulfate, mono-sodium phosphate, bi-sodium phosphate, acetic acid, ammonium hydroxide, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and mixtures thereof.
- non-aqueous inorganic electrolytes examples include ammonia, sulfur dioxide, potassium chloride, anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen cyanide and so forth.
- organic electrolytes examples include methyl alcohol, acetic acid and the like. Although ideally insoluble in the electrolyte, in many cases the reactant material may be soluble therein to the extent of about 0 to 10 percent but usually the solubility is between 0 and about 3 percent and preferably between 0 and about 1.0 percent.
- suitable concentrations of metal ions may be between about 0.01 percent and 5 percent by weight of electrolyte, however, between about 0.02 percent and 3 percent by weight of electrolyte may also be utilized. Preferably though, between about 0.02 percent and 0.5 percent by weight of electrolyte is present.
- metallic ions which may be used are antimony, bismuth, and lead, tin, cadmium, mercury, silver, zinc, cobalt, calcium, barium, and mixtures thereof.
- the metal ions may be placed in the electrolyte by employing a consumable anode of the desired metal or metals, such as a lead anode, whereby the metal ions are formed in the electrolyte and transferred to the area adjacent to the cathode.
- a consumable anode of the desired metal or metals such as a lead anode
- Salts or other compounds of the metals such as chlorides, phosphates, acetates, and the like also may be dissolved in the electrolyte if desired.
- the temperature of the cell is usually above the melting point of the reactant material and below the boiling point of the electrolyte. Temperatures between about 0 degree centigrade and degrees centigrade are generally satisfactory, but optimum yields may be obtained at temperatures between about twenty-five degrees centigrade and seventy degrees centigrade when utilizing an aqueous electrolyte. When utilizing a non-aqueous electrolyte temperatures of from 60 degrees centigrade to 800 degrees centigrade may be utilized, depending on the system employed.
- the structure of the electrodes utilized in the practice of this invention may vary, depending on the reactant material utilized, it being preferred, however, to employ electrodes such as those illustrated in my copending ap plication, S.N. 262,497, filed Mar. 4, 1963.
- additional reactant materials are supplied to the electrode surface from the source which is usually in contact with a minor portion of the electrode (although when the reactant wicks downwardly into the electrolyte it may be in contact with the height of the body of reactant).
- Electrode current density may be set by the operator and is de pendent upon which density gives the best results for the cell design, reactant material and the construction of the electrode.
- the current density to be utilized in carrying out the process of this invention will depend on the product desired.
- a current density of from 0.1 ampere per square foot to about 500 amperes per square foot may be utilized.
- a preferable range being from about amperes per square foot to about 300 amperes per square foot.
- other current densities consistent with the economic production of the product desired may also be utilized to transfer reactant material to, and wet an electrode in contact with electrolyte.
- Example 1 Twenty percentsulfuric acid (200 milliliters) was charged equally to the anolyte and catholyte compartments of an electrolytic cell like that illustrated in FIG. 1. This cell had an amalgamated lead plate as a cathode and two platinum electrodes as anodes. The cathode and anode were separated by a ceramic diaphragm. A temperature of from to degrees centigrade was maintained by a water bath.
- Nitrobenzene (5 grams) was then added to the catholyte section, below the electrolyte and an average current of 25 amperes per square foot was impressed and maintained on the electrolytic cell for a period of approximately 4.2 hours, so as to maintain a potential difference of 0.9 volt between the cathode and a standard calomel electrode inserted in the cell for measuring purposes only.
- the electrolyte was then removed from the electrolytic cell and neutralized to a pH of 6, utilizing a percent sodium hydroxide solution.
- the resultant mixture was then ether extracted.
- the ether layer was removed and evaporated to near dryness.
- the residue was thereafter dissolved in choroform, which was extracted with water.
- the water was separated and combined with the water solution separated from the ether layer.
- the chloroform solution was then evaporated to approximately 10 cc.
- aqueous solution was analyzed by ultraviolet spectroscopic methods and the chloroform solution was analyzed by infrared means. These analytical procedures showed the presence of nitrobenzene, azoxybenzene, aniline and p-aminophenol.
- Table I which follows after Example 2, shows the amounts of nitrobenzene unreacted, ampere hours and current density utilized.
- Example 2 The procedures of Example 1 were repeated, utilizing the same cell equipment but with a 1.4 ampere-hour current passage. The results, upon analysis, were as indicated in Table I. It was further observed in Example 1 and this example, by polarographic traces, that essentially 100 percent reversible reactions took place at the cathode, indicative of a high eificiency for the reduction of nitrobenzene.
- Example 3 An electrolytic cell was utilized similar to FIGURE 2, in which the anode is in contact with, and the cathode is maintained out of contact with the reactant material.
- a 10 percent HCl solution 200 milliliters was utilized as the electrolyte.
- Both the anode and cathode were made of lead having V-shaped grooved surfaces one-eighth of an inch peak to peak and one-eighth of an inch deep.
- the lower proportion of the anode was immersed in monochlorobenzene (1O milliliters).
- a current density of amperes per square foot was impressed on this system.
- the organic material was observed to wet the entire surface of the anode.
- a polarographic trace showed essentially a completely reversible reaction. There was no evidence of gas evolution. After about 15 minutes, a yellow haze was evident in the vicinity of the anode. The haze increased with further electrolysis.
- Example 4 The electrolytic cell of Example 3 was again utilized. The cathode was now placed in contact with, and the anode remained out of contact with, the monochlorobenzene. A wetting of the cathode by the monochlorobenzene was visible on impressing a direct current of about 70 amperes per square foot on the system. Hydrogen gas evolution from the cathode was terminated as the organic monochlorobenzene wetted or covered the cathode surface. Polarographic traces showed a reversible reaction evidencing high efiiciency of the reduction of monochlorobenzene.
- Example 5 An electrolytic cell similar to that of FIG. 2, was charged with water grams), phenol (5 grams) and sodium acetate (5 grams) which formed an electrolyte solution.
- a graphite rod was utilized as a cathode and a lead sponge anode, such as is conventional in storage batteries, was employed.
- Benzene were added to this solution and floated on top of the electrolyte.
- the lead sponge anode was inserted through the benzene layer into the aqueous layer, leaving a portion in contact with the body of the benzene. It was observed that the benzene wetted the lead anode. A current density of 20 amperes per square foot was then applied.
