Strategies and Tactics in Electroorganic Synthesis: Electroauxiliary, Cation Pool, and Flow Microreactor

The electrochemical method serves as one of the most straightforward methods for electron-transfer-driven reactions that have been widely used for various transformations in organic synthesis, although its potential has not yet been fully utilized. To meet future demands for producing desired compounds in a highly efficient and environmentally benign way, the power of electroorganic synthesis should be greatly enhanced. We have developed some strategies and tactics for organic electrochemical reactions over the past few decades, and this presentation will provide an outline of their principles and applications.
