Green electrochemistry. Examples and challenges

Abstract: Electrochemical methods have been proposed for synthesis of organic compounds, including conversion of CO 2 . Such methods may provide a basis for environmentally friendly and sustainable methods for chemical production. Nevertheless, electrochemical syntheses are not widely utilized. Several examples of ongoing research are presented that illustrate both the opportunities as well as the challenges associated with the utilization of electrochemistry for green chemical manufacturing.

“…trode materials and pairings (Table 1, entries [1][2][3][4][5], or the supporting electrolyte (Table 1, entries 5-7). The inclusion of various metal salt additives as redox mediators proved to be unfruitful, mainly because deposition of the parent metal on the platinum cathode was observed (Table 1, entries 8-14).…”
