Abstract

An efficient and mechanistically different method for the electrosynthesis of enaminone directly from methyl ketones, amines and nitromethane was developed. This transition-metal-free method proceeded at room temperature to give a wide array of enaminones in one step, utilizing nitromethane as the carbon source.
