Abstract

Although electrosynthesis has been established as a powerful tool in organic and polymer synthesis, it still is in the development stage to fulfill its potential as a “green” methodology. 1 Organic electrosynthesis has been very often carried out in aprotic organic solvents. However, most volatile organic compounds (VOC)s are flammable and not always safe from health and environmental perspectives. In the case of inorganic electrolysis, VOC-free ...
