Kolbe's electrolysis is a process where an aqueous solution of sodium and potassium salt undergoes electrolysis to lead to the formation of a symmetrical alkene. Principle of this technique is that at anode, the carboxylate ion undergoes oxidation and loses carbon dioxide (CO? ). Similarly, at cathode the water decomposes to form hydrogen gas. The alkyl radicals formed in these two cases combine to form alkenes.

Aromatization is the procedure of converting an aliphatic compound into a non aromatic compound using a catalyst. This is usually done through the pathwya of techniques like dehydrogenation where a non aromatic compound is converted into an aromatic compound. Examples: converting cyclohexane to benzene, androgens to estrogens, etc. The final product always contains a benzene-like ring structure which follows Hückel's rule.
