With the fast development of synthetic chemistry, introduction functional group into organic molecules has attracted increasing attention. In these reactions, difunctionalization unsaturated bonds, traditionally with one nucleophile and electrophile, is a powerful strategy for chemical synthesis. this work, we develop different path electrochemical oxidative diazo compounds two nucleophiles. Under metal-free external oxidant-free conditions, series structurally diverse heteroatom-containing hardly synthesized by traditional methods (such as high-value alkoxy-substituted phenylthioacetates, α-thio, α-amino acid derivatives well α-amino, β-amino derivatives) are obtained in synthetically useful yields. addition, procedure exhibits mild reaction excellent functional-group tolerance good efficiency on large-scale Importantly, protocol also amenable to key intermediate bioactive simple practical process.

Redox processes are at the heart of synthetic methods that rely on either electrochemistry or photoredox catalysis, but how do and catalysis compare? Both approaches provide access to high energy intermediates (e.g., radicals) enable bond formations not constrained by rules ionic 2 electron (e) mechanisms. Instead, they 1e mechanisms capable bypassing electronic steric limitations protecting group requirements, thus enabling chemists disconnect molecules in new different ways. However, while providing similar intermediates, differ several physical chemistry principles. Understanding those differences can be key designing transformations forging disconnections. This review aims highlight these similarities between comparing their underlying principles describing impact electrochemical photochemical methods.

Updated water directives and ambitious targets like the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have emerged in last decade to tackle scarcity contamination. Although numerous strategies been developed remove pollutants, it is still necessary enhance their effectiveness against toxic biorefractory organic molecules. Comprehensive reviews highlighted appealing features of electrochemical technologies, but much progress has made recent years. In this timely review, a critical discussion on latest innovations perspectives most promising tools for wastewater treatment presented. The work describes performance electrocatalytic anodes direct oxidation, oxidation mediated by electrogenerated active chlorine, reduction as well coupled approaches synchronous anodic cathodic processes combined with homogeneous heterogeneous catalysis. section devoted assessment scale-up issues increase technology readiness level.

Compared with general redox chemistry, electrochemistry using the electron as a potent, controllable, yet traceless alternative to chemical oxidants/reductants usually offers more sustainable options for achieving selective organic synthesis. With its environmentally benign features gradually being uncovered and studied, electrosynthesis is currently undergoing revival becoming rapidly growing area within synthetic community. Among electrochemical transformations, anodically enabled ones have been far extensively exploited than those driven by cathodic reduction, although both approaches are conceptually attractive. To stimulate development of cathodically reactions, this review summarizes recently developed reductive electrosynthetic protocols, discussing highlighting reaction features, substrate scopes, applications, plausible mechanisms reveal recent trends in area. Herein, reduction-enabled preparative transformations categorized into four types: reduction (1) unsaturated hydrocarbons, (2) heteroatom-containing carbon-based systems, (3) saturated C-hetero or C–C polar/strained bonds, (4) hetero-hetero linkages. Apart from net electroreductive few examples photo-electrosynthesis well paired electrolysis also introduced, which offer opportunities overcome certain limitations improve versatility. The electrochemically driven, transition metal-catalyzed cross-couplings that comprehensively discussed several other reviews not included here.

Late-stage functionalization (LSF) constitutes a powerful strategy for the assembly or diversification of novel molecular entities with improved physicochemical biological activities. LSF can thus greatly accelerate development medicinally relevant compounds, crop protecting agents, and functional materials. Electrochemical synthesis has emerged as an environmentally friendly platform transformation organic compounds. Over past decade, electrochemical late-stage (eLSF) gained major momentum, which is summarized herein up to February 2023.

Abstract Herein, a facile and general electroreductive deuteration of unactivated alkyl halides (X = Cl, Br, I) or pseudo-halides OMs) using D 2 O as the economical deuterium source was reported. In addition to primary secondary halides, sterically hindered tertiary chlorides also work very well, affording target deuterodehalogenated products with excellent efficiency incorporation. More than 60 examples are provided, including late-stage dehalogenative natural products, pharmaceuticals, their derivatives, all incorporation (up 99% D), demonstrating potential utility developed method in organic synthesis. Furthermore, does not require external catalysts tolerates high current, showing possible use industrial applications.
