Aplicações indispensáveis ​​das técnicas eletroquímicas para reações sintéticas orgânicas: aumentar a versatilidade e a sustentabilidade

Jeffrey E. Dick e Daesung Chong

Because of the growing need for more versatile tools in synthetic reactions as well as industrially facile chemical synthesis techniques for the mass production of polymers and pharmaceuticals, a novel approach to the cleavage and coupling of new C-C bonds is crucial. Electrochemistry is a sustainable means of performing a chemical reaction at room temperature without excessive heating; it also offers the possibility of using inexpensive and environmentally benign cross coupling catalysts focused on iron complexes as the organometallic electron-transfer mediator. Several examples are indicated throughout this editorial to give an understanding of the applications of voltammetric techniques as synthetic tools. The role of mandatory high-energy organic methods such as reflux and week-long photolysis can be replaced by sustainable aspects of electrochemical operations using the electron as a proven reagent in synthetic chemistry
