Recent Advances in the High-Value Conversion of Alkenes Induced by Electrochemistry
Over the past few decades, electrosynthesis has advanced significantly, enabling numerous valuable transformations for synthetic chemists. Olefins are inexpensive, readily available industrial feedstocks extensively used in organic synthesis. Therefore, achieving high-value transformation of olefins is of great value. However, the use of stoichiometric oxidants and the generation of stoichiometric waste hinder its broader application. Utilizing electrochemistry to achieve high-value transformations of olefins represents a green, environmentally friendly, and sustainable strategy, since it eliminates the need for external oxidants. This review discusses recent advances in the high-value conversion of alkenes induced by electrochemistry. The article introduces two modes of electrochemical olefin transformation, discussing both synthetic applications and mechanistic studies. It highlights their advantages and suggests future directions to tackle the existing challenges in this synthetic domain.
