Electrochemical generation and utilization of alkoxy radicals

Abstract

This highlight summarises electrochemical approaches for the generation and utilization of alkoxy radicals, predominantly focusing on recent advances (2012–present). The application of electrochemically generated alkoxy radicals in a diverse range of transformations is described, including discussion on reaction mechanisms, scope and limitations, in addition to highlighting future challenges in this burgeoning area of sustainable synthesis.
