“…''In situ'' electrochemical hydrogen generation is an attractive process that dispenses a molecular hydrogen supply, since atomic hydrogen is produced on the electrode surface, and also eliminates inconveniences like catalyst poisoning [1][2][3][4]. Ni, Pt, Pd and Rh catalysts were used in the electrocatalytic hydrogenation (ECH) of a large variety of organic compounds, such as aromatic and unsaturated hydrocarbons [5][6][7][8][9][10], glucose [11,12], diamines and aminonitriles [13], aldehydes [9], ketones [6], diketones [14], nicotine [15] and unsaturated esters [16,17].…”
