Abstract

Current affairs: Efficient N,N dimerization by using an electric current is a recent powerful example of preparative electrosynthesis where conventional reagents fail. The general and practical nature of this method as well as other applications will breathe new life into the electroorganic synthesis of complex molecules.

Keywords: electrochemistry; natural products; organic chemistry; oxidative coupling; sustainable chemistry.
