This experiment employs an electrochemical synthesis method to produce 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole from benzoylhydrazine. The structure of the synthesized product is identified and characterized using analytical techniques, including NMR, infrared spectroscopy, and melting point determination. In comparison to traditional organic synthesis methods, the electrochemical approach aligns with green chemistry principles, offering advantages such as simplicity, mild reaction conditions, and high yield. This experiment encourages students, who have mastered fundamental organic laboratory techniques, to explore cutting-edge electrochemical synthesis methods and gain insights into the application of electrochemistry in organic synthesis. Additionally, it fosters students’ interest in scientific research and innovative thinking, thereby enriching the content of basic organic chemistry education.
