Various mono- and disubstituted cinnamic acid derivatives and aromatic carboxylic acids with saturated side chains were incubated mainly with Bacillus, Candida, Hansenula, and Saccharomyces strains. The cinnamic acids carrying a hydroxy- and/or a methoxy group at the 3- and/or 4-position of the benzene ring were decarboxylated with high yields. Most of the reactions were terminated within 24 to 48 h. Substitution at other ring positions afforded also decarboxylation, but at much lower yields. Derivatives with other residues like methyl, chloride, or bromide were not transform ed to the respective styrene. None of the saturated aromatic carboxylic acids could be decarboxylated by the strains used.

The o-nitrobenzyl thiocyanate (I) behaves differently on the DME and on a large mercury pool electrode. Polarography did not give a sufficiently clear explanation of the reaction mechanism, only the preparative experiments yielded useful results. Whereas polarographic curves in solutions of Britton-Robinson buffer system with 50% by vol. ethanol exhibit two cathodic waves within the pH region 1-12, corresponding according to their height ratio to an uptake of 4 e and 2 e respectively, the controlled potential preparation electrolysis (CPE) and coulometry results indicate a more complicated reaction path. In the CPE carried out at the concentration of I 1 . 10 -2 mol/l the electroreductive splitting of CH2-SCN occurs as the first step. Nitrobenzyl radicals so formed react in the follow-up dimerization resulting in dibenzyl or toluene structures. Simultaneously or at a later stage the completion of the electrolytic reduction of the nitro group proceeds to the hydroxylamino group. In solution of 9 > pH > 1 the CPE of nitro compound I takes place by an ECEC mechanism yielding dibenzodiazocine III, its N-oxide IV and 2,2'-dimethylazoxybenzene (V). In course of preparative electrolysis in strongly acidic medium 2-amino-benzo(l,3)-thiazine-l-oxide (II) is formed by an EC mechanism.
