Green Chemistry: Electrochemical Organic Transformations via Paired Electrolysis

Abstract: Paired electrolysis is highly valuable from the viewpoint of efficiency as well as atom and energy economies. In order to optimize the latter two for chemical reactions, the development of paired electrochemical processes is necessary. When both of the electrodes in an electrochemical cell (divided and undivided) are applied as working electrodes, and both sides of the processes (oxidation and reduction) yield valuable compounds, this ideal electrolysis phenomena is defined as paired electrosynthesis. This pai… Show more

“…Third, developing a thermodynamically more favorable organic oxidation reaction to replace the low-value and kineticsluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is of great signi cance to enhance the performance of cathodic reactions in an aqueous solution. [52][53][54][55][56] Electrocatalytic hydrogenation of 1a can be accomplished by adopting a divided Co-F||NiSe two-electrode electrolyzer by using the oxidation of 1,6-hexanediamine (4a) to replace OER. Adiponitrile (5a), an important industrial feedstock for nylon production, and 2a with high yields are simultaneously synthesized.…”

“…Easy access to value-added chemicals using modern synthetic tools [89][90][91][92] (such as electrochemistry, photochemistry, flow chemistry, biochemistry, digital chemistry) have been progressing fast due to their environmentally friendly approach with less or no waste / side products, giving a safe and steady route to get desirable products. Asymmetric electrochemical transformations remain highly desired.…”

“…Electrical current could play a role in forming reaction intermediates in such chemical transformations with minimal, or in the absence of, waste production by direct or indirect electrolysis processes using batch and flow technologies. Furthermore, the merging of technologies can accelerate production yields [5–9] . At present, considering ongoing climate challenges, stakeholders related to the production of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals are enamoured to introduce green and sustainable techniques that conserve energy, generate fewer by‐products, and derive maximum atom economies with low cost.…”
