Synopsis

Synthetic electrochemists have been working untiringly to incorporate the environmentally friendly feature of viable energy foundations into the entire production procedure. However, stoichiometric detrimental and costly chemical oxidants that minimize atom efficiency constitute the foundation of many well-established processes. When electrochemistry and organic synthesis are used in tandem, organic synthesis becomes more efficient, particularly during periods of cost-effectiveness and atom economy. Thus, it is not surprising that synthetic organic electrochemistry opens a new horizon that allows the direct application of electrical input to create an advantageous attached organic framework in light of the changing climate and the requirement to adhere to green chemistry principles. The reaction is selective due to the adjustment of the electrode power options. In this chapter, different reactions based on controlled potential electrolysis or constant current electrolysis are explored. This will be valuable to entities who are skilled in synthetic organic electrochemistry, but it also allows them to learn the galvanic potential in an assortment of selective controlled organic mediated reactions.
